Hello, I forgot to provide some information.

These repositories are available and we can install and update some Linux packages. rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - AppStream (RPMs) rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-rpms Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - BaseOS (RPMs)

But, we need to add the following repository. Does someone know how to do that ? rhel-8-for-x86_64-highavailability-rpms Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - High Availability (RPMs)

Thanks

I'm not sure I totally understand but we don't provide Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - AppStream, etc at packages.microsoft.com. Those repos are from Red Hat.

So for Azure RHEL VMs the repositories are actually provided by Microsoft, but not through packages.microsoft.com but through Microsofts installation of RHUI (rhui-[123].microsoft.com) which should be a Geo-HA setup, I'd say open a support case @emarins

Thanks for your reply @daviddavis. We are already using Red Hat repositories from packages.microsoft.com. We deployed Red Hat servers from marketplace and everything is fine if we use BaseOS repositories. But we are trying to find the steps to add the HA repository in my existing Red Hat Azure servers. Do you happen to know the list of Red Hat repositories available on packages.microsoft.com ? or someone else that can help to find it out ? Thank you

The RHEL repos on packages.microsoft.com are viewable here (by searching for rhel). But I don't think those are the repos you're referring to - these are Microsoft products packaged for RHEL, not OS packages curated by Red Hat engineers. The marketplace images pull their updates from RHUI (rhui-*.microsoft.com), which is effectively a mirror of RHEL repositories. I've reached out to the RHUI team to see if they can answer your question.

As mentioned above, the HA repositories are not part of packages.microsoft.com. Recommend opening an Azure Support case if your issue is still unresolved.
