thanks for that, so it is clear RHEL 8.7 won't get any more updates.
Sure it's not an Extended Update Support (EUS) release. On the other hand 8.6 and 8.8 are.
I believe that Scale is only supported on RHEL releases that are supported by Redhat. So right now in the 8.x version that is 8.6 with EUS and 8.8 which in due course will also be an EUS release.
Given that Scale tends to be supported on new RHEL point releases in the Scale release or PTF following the RHEL release then as far as I can see the only way to be fully supported at all times is to stick to EUS releases.
I would note that the elephant in the room is unless you have budget for genuine RHEL rather than a rebuild you need a plan to move to an alternative distribution.
