Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Is XCP still maintained?

For what it is worth: NetApp's IMT shows that 1.6.2 is supported with
RHEL8.0
I just tried CENTOS 7.9 with XCP 1.6.2 (no problem):

[tmac@centos7 linux]$ sudo ./xcp activate
XCP 1.6.2; (c) 2021 NetApp, Inc.; Licensed to Tim McCarthy [None] until Thu
Mar  4 15:45:00 2021

XCP already activated

[tmac@centos7 linux]$ sudo ./xcp help
USAGE:
   xcp [[help] [command]| -version]

   optional arguments:
    help                Show XCP help message and exit
    -version            Show XCP version number and exit

   To see help text, you can run:
   xcp help             Display this content
   xcp help info        Step by step usage of all commands
   xcp help <command>   Individual command help

   command:
    activate            Activate an XCP license on the current host
    license             Show XCP license information
    show                Request information from host about NFS exports
    scan                Read all the files from export path
    copy                Recursively copy everything from source to target
    resume              Resume copy operation from the point it was halted
    sync                Synchronize increment changes on source to target
after copy
    verify              Verify that the target is the same as the source
    delete              Delete data on the NFS exported volume
[tmac@centos7 linux]$ cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core)

--tmac
