Can a RHEL Universal Forwarder be installed on a RHEV host?

I have a Red-hat Enterprise Virtualization Hosts that I would like to put the Splunk Universal Forwarder on to collect logs. Is there any reason that I should not do this?

does Splunk have app for Red Hat Virtualization (RHV) like VMware and HyperV?

It should exactly the same as if you were going to do it on a RHEL install so I'd say go for it. However, I've not heard of much usage in monitoring the red hat hypervisor (in fact I only know of Splunk built monitoring for VMware systems and HyperV via some of the MS tech), so that sounds like a pretty interesting use case.
