Supported version of RHEL for Immutable Repository with XFS Fast Clone

Hello.
At official documentation of Veeam Backup & Replication 11 present info that "RHEL 6.0 to 8.3" supported for repository (https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... ory-server).

At the same time at his weekly forums posts Mr Gostev posted one history where figuring RHEL 8.4:
"Following the famous HPE Apollo 4510 based all-in-one backup appliance performance test with V11 a few months ago, we received many requests to repeat the same test with a Linux-based backup repository on the same hardware. I'm happy to pass the corresponding information from Federico Venier of HPE who has just completed the testing of V11 Hardened Repository in the same lab as the original test, using RHEL 8.4 as the repository OS. The only difference is this time there was no backup proxy role running on the Apollo server to simulate the recommended "hardened" configuration. Federico was able to achieve 12GB/s peak backup throughput, so just a wee bit faster than 11.4GB/s he saw using Windows. Judging from the bottleneck stats, the repository server is far from being saturated and should be able to ingest data even faster – but this would require increasing source storage bandwidth and possibly an additional backup proxy."

Is RHEL 8.4 supported oficially by Veeam as OS for Immutable Repository with XFS Fast Clone?

No, as RHEL 8.4 was released 3 months after V11. So it did not have any chance to be in V11 QC labs
