With the Ansible collection for Microsoft SQL Server, you just dnf install ansible-collection-microsoft-sql on a system based on RHEL 8.5.

then create a mssql.yml file and you can deploy a SQL Server in under a minute. Plus it handles advanced tuning and securing the environment with TLS encryption as well.
