I am trying to install SCVMM 2022 agent on AlmaLinux 9. I discovered that the agent script is trying to use init.d while in AlmaLinux, there is no compatibility with init.d anymore but only systemd.
I updated the install script to copy the agent exec in /etc/systemd/system. Now, I have a new error "Unable to find service control mechanism". I understand that the script is unable to register the agent daemon in systemd. How can I do to get the agent registered. Have anyone ever have that issue with RedHat9 or any other forks in SCVMM 2022?

I'm just working on this (literally) right now, and while I can't get you a complete answer, I can tell you I've done the following and gotten it to at least install so I can create the template. Here's my notes up to this point, after creating the VM and copying the scvmm agent:
sudo yum install initscripts -y
https://centos.pkgs.org/9-stream/centos-baseos-x86_64/initscripts-10.11.1-1.el9.x86_64.rpm.html
sudo ./install scvmmguestagent.1.0.0.544.x64.tar

Shut down VM in VMware
Clone to template
I noticed that they don't offer RHEL 9 in their Guest OS Profile, so it may only be half supported. I'm also using VMware, you may have better luck if you're using Hyper-V
