Hi,
I have try to upgrade CentOS 6.5 to 7, appears this error:
]# yum install redhat-upgrade-tool preupgrade-assistant-contents

Can I directly upgrade (update?) from my current 6.5 box to version 7?
Or, must I wipe my drives and install from scratch?
I wouldn't. redhat does have an upgrade script for headless
server-only type configurations, but there's just so much room for
'wrong', with
newer versions of all the system components like python, apache, libc and
other libraries, postgresql database server, etc etc etc.
I would save /home, a copy of /etc/passwd,shadow and any other specific
configuration files, dump any databases, apache configurations, etc etc,
then do a clean install and piece that stuff back together.
As John says, it's risky.
And you're going to want backups anyways if things go south.
There is a tool in the works, but last I heard it needs testing.

Huh. I thought preupgrade was part of RHEL 7, since it's in fedora 19 (and
pretty much works, most of the time...).
Another idea: back up your o/s: mv /boot/* to /boot/old, stuff off / to
/old, then just install. Easy downgrade path....
