Oracle Database 19c and Oracle ClusterWare are certified on OL8 and RHEL8

How do you get the information Database?
Go to My Oracle Support and hit the “Certification” tab.

Then choose “Oracle Database“, “19.0.0.0.0” and either “Linux x86-64 Oracle Linux 8.x” or “Linux x86-64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8“.



You will need to have database RU 19.7 as minimum database patch level. Or you will need to add extra patches on top of 19.6. But life will be much easier with 19.7.0, believe me.
