  • No.1 SSH connection failed with No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic)

    Step 1: Make sure network can access and ssh port 22 are open.

     you can use ssh -v -p 22 "your instance ip" to check the ssh port is open.
    

    Step 2: Check your connection account is correct, and ssh tools is supoort SHA256 or 512.Because after Centos 9, the server can not accecpt SHA1 signature algorithm. If you do not want to update your ssh tools, you can choose ed25519 key type.

     Or you can choose to make the system support SHA1,We do not recommend this due to security risks.
     CentOS/Rocky/Rhel command: update-crypto-policies --set LEGACY

  • No.3 Why is the CentOS/Rocky Linux AMI missing a part of its memory?

    In RHEL 9 and later(X86), the memory allocation for kdump varies based on the total system memory.

      For systems with less than 4 GB of RAM: The default crash kernel memory allocation is typically 192 MB.
      For systems with 4 GB to 64 GB of RAM: The default crash kernel memory allocation is 256MB.
      For systems with more than 64 GB of RAM: The default crash kernel memory allocation is 512MB.
    

    We do not recommend you to choose low memory instances when using AMIs such as centos stream / rocky linux 9,Because dnf-automatic will take a lot of memory.

  • No.4 Configure your CentOS 7 virtual machine to use vault repositories.

      $ sudo yum-config-manager --disable \*
    

    Add the following content at the end of the /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Vault.repo file:

      $ sudo cat /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Vault.repo
      
          [...]
          [base-vault]
          name=CentOS-$releasever - Base - Vault
          baseurl=http://vault.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/
          gpgcheck=1
          gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7
          enabled=1
          
          [updates-vault]
          name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates - Vault
          baseurl=http://vault.centos.org/centos/$releasever/updates/$basearch/
          gpgcheck=1
          gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7
          enabled=1
          
          [extras-vault]
          name=CentOS-$releasever - Extras - Vault
          baseurl=http://vault.centos.org/centos/$releasever/extras/$basearch/
          gpgcheck=1
          gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7
          enabled=1
    

    Update the system to ensure everything is working correctly with the new repositories.

      $ sudo yum clean all
      $ sudo rm -rf /var/cache/yum/
      $ sudo yum makecache
