      1. Proposed title of this feature request

         Distribute the OpenShift CLI for both RHEL8 and RHEL9  from the web console.
         
      2. What is the nature and description of the request?

         In the OpenShift web console, click on the "?" in the top right corner and select "Command Line Tools" from the pull-down menu.
         (URL: https://console-openshift-console.apps.<domain>/command-line-tools)
         This will display a screen for downloading the "oc" binary for "Linux for x86_64".
         However, this oc binary is for RHEL9 clients.
         So, if you try to run the downloaded "oc" binary on an RHEL8 client, the following error message will be displayed and it will fail.
         

       $ ./oc version
           ./oc: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by ./oc)
           ./oc: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by ./oc)
           ./oc: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.32' not found (required by ./oc)

        As mentioned in OCPBUGS-44881, there are two types of oc binaries: one for RHEL 8 and one for RHEL 9.
        However, only the RHEL9 oc binary is provided via the web console.

      • Please provide the RHEL8 oc binary via the web console in the same way as the RHEL9
      • If this is difficult, please provide information on the web console about a site where customers can download the CLI for the old version of RHEL.

      3. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

        If the customer is using the RHEL8 environment as a client, they will not be able to execute the CLI downloaded from the web console.

      4. List any affected packages or components.
