An in-place upgrade is the recommended and supported way to migrate your system to the next major version of Red Hat® Enterprise Linux®. A fresh installation removes all traces of the previously installed operating system, system data, configurations, and applications and installs the latest version of the operating system. Using the Leapp utility, the in-place upgrade allows you to replace—without having to remove—the earlier version with the latest version and preserves installed applications and utilities, along with the configurations and preferences.
Also, updates and releases will be discontinued for CentOS Linux 7 on June 30, 2024. If your organization is running part of your environment on CentOS Linux, attend this webinar to learn how to Convert2RHEL to help ease your migration to Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
This session is meant to provide you with best practices in planning Red Hat Enterprise Linux upgrades and converting CentOS systems to Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
In this webinar, we’ll cover:
- The Red Hat Enterprise Linux life cycle and supported upgrade paths
- The in-place upgrade stages of Red Hat Enterprise Linux
- A demonstration of an in-place upgrade
- An overview of Convert2RHEL
- A demonstration of converting CentOS to Red Hat Enterprise Linux
