The terminology "end-of-life" should match the existing style in this document. Line 68 uses "End Of Life (EOL)" with capitals. Consider using "End Of Life (EOL)" instead of "end-of-life" for consistency, or alternatively use the abbreviated form "EOL" since it's already defined earlier in the document.

The installation command references azure-cli-2.72.0 but based on line 96 which shows the version format as azure-cli-<version>-1.el7, the correct command format should likely be sudo dnf install azure-cli-2.72.0-1.el9 or similar. Please verify the exact package name format for RHEL 9 systems to ensure users can successfully install this specific version.

Suggested change
> dnf install azure-cli-2.72.0`.
> dnf install azure-cli-2.72.0-1.el9`.

using Python 3.9 is not accurate. It should be the OS does not have python3.12 package. In other word, less than RHEL 9.4.
