RHEL-08-010800 - A separate RHEL 8 filesystem must be used for user home directories (such as /home or an equivalent).

Information

The use of separate file systems for different paths can protect the system from failures resulting from a file system becoming full or failing.

Solution

Migrate the "/home" directory onto a separate file system.
