Does Elasticsearch 8.18.X, 8.19.X and 9.X (plus Logstash, Kibana, Fleet and Beats) support RHEL 10? I am referring to the licensed version and not just the OSS version.
A quick perusal indicates that there is no issues (at least installing on [Rocky 10](https://www.server-world.info/en/note?os=Rocky_Linux_10&p=elasticstack9&f=1)), but the official [support matrix says only supports RHEL 9](https://www.elastic.co/support/matrix).
Kind regards,
Simon

Should be supported. At least try with the tarbal version. Extract, test, should work because ELK use only JDK. All changes in OS are described [here](https://www.elastic.co/docs/deploy-manage/deploy/self-managed/important-system-configuration).

I thought the question was _officially_ supported. I have been different releases of Elasticsearch for over 6 months now on RHEL 10, pasted output from those instances here several times on different threads.
My assumption is that if it's not on the official support matrix page, it's not officially supported (yet).

Yes, I am enquiring about the official support.

That is what I thought too, but I wanted to confirm this.
I will contact our Elastic partner rep and find out if RHEL 10 support is likely any time soon.
