.. note::

   EL stands for Enterprise Linux, such as: Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, CentOS and Oracle Linux.

   openEuler support covers the management node, installed and diskless service nodes, and
   stateful and stateless compute nodes.

riscv64 support covers EL 10 (Rocky Linux 10 and the RHEL 10 RISC-V developer preview), on nodes
that boot through UEFI firmware and grub2. Both stateful and stateless nodes are supported, and
the management node itself can run on riscv64. See
:doc:`/guides/admin-guides/manage_clusters/riscv64/index` for details.
