There was a recent thread about Redhat's removal of drivers from LSI SAS2, it's probably the problem you are facing. It can be worked around with the help of Elrepo repo.

Is there a utility somewhere to check a running system to see if it is going to be supported in RHEL/CentOS 8?
If you read the ElRepo Blog, you would know the following:
You can check by running the lspci command (lspci -nn) and compare it with Red Hats list of removed ID's:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/htm...
Here is the list of all (so far created) the DUD's for EL8: https://elrepo.org/linux/dud/el8/x86_64/
And here is ElRepo page http://elrepo.org/tiki/DeviceIDs that shows all the drivers ElRepo has the drivers for, and can create DUD ISO files if asked via ElRepo bugzila: https://elrepo.org/bugs/main_page.php
If you read my question, you would have answered "No. There is no utility that I'm aware of."
Thank you for pointing me to the information, which I have already seen. I was wondering if someone has coded up a script already to check a running system, before I do it myself.

I have an older Dell PowerEdge server with one hard drive, with CentOS 7 currently installed. I wanted to do a clean install of CentOS 8, but it doesn't pick up the hard drive. When I click on the destination to pick the hard drive it only shows the USB drive that I'm installing from. I checked for a RAID configuration on the server, but there is only one disk, and no RAID is configured. The disk is controlled by the PowerEdge Raid Controller (PERC), but when I disable that I lose the disk completely. I suspect that PERC is part of the problem, but a CentOS 7 install proceeds normally with PERC enabled. Do you know of a change from CentOS 7 to 8 that would cause this, or if there is a workaround? I've searched for several days and haven't found anything yet.
Thank you!
