Hi all,
few days ago I did a OpsCenter Update (Administrator + Protector + Analyzer) in a customer environment, running RedHat Enterprise Linux 8.5.
The customer wants to apply some RedHat Patches (also security patches) with the result to have
RedHat Enterprise Linux 8.6 !Official Redhat 8.5 and 8.6 is not yet supported !
RedHat Version 8.5 was already released end of 2021 !
Some customers has a legal commitment to apply patched on regular basis !
So the demand on the Hitachi product management is to support newer OS releases better and faster than at the moment. Nevertheless I did the Linux Patch Updates together with the customer with the final RedHat version 8.6.
We take the risk to have a none-supported environment, but better a non-supported environment than the next ransomware case.
We run into some issues, with Analyzer and Administrator. The java package was not usable and we have to fix it.
But we got it and all the OpsCenter products was running fine on RedHat Enterprise Linux 8.6.
;-)
regards
Sven
