These are the details:

OS: RHEL 8.8 with licenses RHEL for SAP solution

DB: Oracle 19c

SAP Process Orchestration 7.5 SP28 

In particular we want to implement Oracle Database in a Red Hat High Availability Pacemaker Cluster.

Please give your confirmation that we can follow the solution provided by RHEL: Otherwise please provide SAP official KB in order to implement the solution required.

As per the SAP Process Orchestration 7.5, it supports Oracle Database 19c. However, the specifics for implementing a high-availability solution for an SAP system with an Oracle Database isn't covered directly in SAP's documentation and generally is dependent on the technology you're using - in this case, you're using RHEL's High Availability Pacemaker Cluster.

As it stands, here are couple of SAP Notes which might be helpful:

SAP Note 1174137 - Oracle DB: Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) installations
