Feature request: AmazonLinux 2023 (al2023) support #5214

Closed nyetsche closed 1 month ago

nyetsche commented 1 year ago

Amazon Linux 2023 was released in 2023 and has support from AWS until at least 2027: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/linux/al2023/ug/release-cadence.html

Please consider adding al2023 to supported AMIs/OSes.

The alinux2 AMI was EOL in Dec, 2020 - https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/update-on-amazon-linux-ami-end-of-life/

While RHEL8 is in develop and possibly released soon - https://github.com/aws/aws-parallelcluster/pull/5211 - the other operating system choices, ubuntu1804, centos7 are at/near EOL. The ubuntu2004 OS has a few more years, but we'd prefer to stay with an RPM distribution. RHEL8 requires an additional licensing cost.

https://github.com/aws/aws-parallelcluster/issues/4120 suggested adding Oracle, Rocky, or AlmaLinux 8 as the next step after centos7 but there are no recent updates.

I will second this. It would be very helpful to have AL 2023 supported.

Perhaps it is possible to use EC2 Image Builder to do this prior to it being officially added?

Hello @nyetsche, RHEL 8 is coming with next release (3.6), while alinux2 EOL is 2025-06-30, see https://aws.amazon.com/it/amazon-linux-2/faqs/. Support for alinux2023 is being considered, thanks for the feedback.

I think this can be closed as per https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2024/06/aws-parallelcluster-3-10-amazon-linux-2023-terraform/

Since ParallelCluster 3.10.0, Amazon Linux 2023 is supported.

Thank you
