I have two clusters running on v2 with Harvester I did face a couple of issues though.
any particular issues you have?

So far, I think its just the lack of SPDK support on Kernels before 5.something. Most of the Approved Version of OS out there in the Gov/Fed realm are based on 9.X RHEL/EL, so theyre still on Kernel 5.13.
Def not saying its a widespread issue, mostly just policy problems, but I can't find a way around, short of waiting until 10.X EL is a possitibility, but that could be...year+

When I tried the problem I had was V2 doesn’t support the older 5.14 kernel. But in Rocky 9 updating the kernel to 6.x will break the FIPS compliance, I think because of tcrypt module in ELRepo, but I’m not sure. I know the obvious answer is to upgrade to Rocky 10, but there’s no DISA stig for it. I got silly and tried some chatGPT suggestions, using vfio_pci and uio_pci_generic instead of nvme_pci, which worked in the OS but longhorn couldn’t see or validate the disks. I’m certainly not the smartest guy to be doing this, but I’m willing to try stuff.
Just to follow up in case anyone was on the edge of their seats, DISA released a STIG checklist, so the 6.x kernel is now an option, and this whole problem went away.
