This is not a bug in sos: we support multiple distributions from the same sos version meaning that there is some variation in the environment and tool capabilities where sos runs.
The same command on a recent Fedora system would produce something like:
$ cat sos_commands/systemd/journalctl_--list-boots

> It seemed journalctl in systemd-208-20.el7_1.6 doesn't have this option.
> Either remove this command from sos, or backport this option into
> systemd-208-20.el7 is a solution.
I believe persistent journald logs are disabled by policy in RHEL7 and that this is a requirement for any operation working with boot IDs, e.g.:
# journalctl -k -b -1
Failed to look up boot -1: Cannot assign requested address
Note that other products such as Atomic do use the journal (and this version of sos): if there is to be a change here it needs to be in the systemd packaging.
