We have newly installed RHEL 10 servers for MediaAgents and we want to use them as VMWare Access Nodes. We have noticed that there is no documented support for VMware AccessNodes on RHEL 10 in docs.
Does anyone know if there are any issues configuring these MA’s as Access Nodes for VMware at this point?

Ah, just to add -- VMware is not officially supporting VDDK deployment on RHEL 10 yet which may be the hold up for official support:
I see a support case from a few months ago where it was not working due to the way RHEL 10 was handling loading of the ublk driver that is required. I see an update was released in 11.42.32 to resolve that, so theoretically it should work, but its not official just yet. I’ll try see if I can get more info!
Thanks Damian, I also found that VDDK is not supporting RHEL 10 as of yet. We could test it, but as this is a production environment we should be on supported versions so I guess it’s better to wait.
