I was searching tonight how to update OLD systems. I have C5 and C6 systems that need updating and they are remote systems. I followed the paths and ended up at DNF. Is this a valid option for updating C5 and C6 to take them to C7?
DNF is a replacement for Yum that will probably be in a future RHEL release, but is not used by any RHEL/CentOS yet.
the only sane way to upgrade C5 or C6 systems is to bring up a clean install of C7, configure new packages to suit your requirements, and import your data. I prefer doing this with a new server or VM, rather than trying to do it on the existing server, once the applications are migrated, then I'll redeploy or retire the old server.
