Jerry,
There is a formally supported upgrade from RHEL 7 to 8, but
unfortunately there is none for CentOS 7 to 8. The reason for this is
based on the totally new repository structure Red Hat used for v8. It's
different enough that an exact counterpart to the RHEL 7>8 upgrade
script hasn't been compiled, tested, and supported. Your only choice is
to back up everything and install CentOS 8 from scratch.
