Hi Arjit,

the rockylinux-8 template has not been released yet, it's scheduled for the next vz7 update, but i 
don't know the timeline.

Nevertheless if you want to try it before the release, you can download the template and give it a try 
(install with an ordinary "rpm -ihv" command):
http://fe.virtuozzo.com/d2a2121fa5438824c62caf326db1132a/rockylinux-8-x86_64-ez-7.0.0-1.vz7.noarch.rpm

Be warned: this is NOT a released version, there might be some issues.

If you get some issues with the template, please file a bug. :)

Hope that helps.
