Fix Recommendation

Configure RHEL 10 to use a separate file system for user home directories by migrating the "/home" directory onto a separate file system/partition.

Check Contents

Verify RHEL 10 uses a separate file system/partition for "/home" with the following command:

$ mount | grep /home
/dev/mapper/luks-ca2261ed-7b00-4b7b-84cd-8cd6d8fa4b28 on /home type xfs (rw,nodev,nosuid,noexec,seclabel)
Note: Options displayed for mount may differ.

If a separate entry for "/home" is not in use, this is a finding.
