Switching to EUS repositories is possible and is supported. Instructions on how to switch your VM to EUS and more details about EUS support end-of-life dates are available [here](https://aka.ms/rhui-update#rhel-eus-and-version-locking-rhel-vms).

> EUS is not supported on RHEL Extras. This means that if you are installing a package that is usually available from the RHEL Extras channel, you will not be able to do so while on EUS. The Red Hat Extras Product Life Cycle is detailed [here](https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/extras/).
