rules.d on RHEL6

[warron.french]

It appears that this directory is not used at all on RHEL6.

I know I have mentioned this before; but it's true.  If I *move* my copy of
audit.rules from /etc/audit into the subdirectory rules.d and restart
audit; the audit.rules file is not recopied/regenerated or whatever by the
auditd.

This behavior is different from RHEL7; where if you delete the
/etc/audit/audit.rules file or move it to /etc/audit/rules.d/audit.rules;
the auditd functions as I expect.


Can someone please correct my understanding?  Is the /etc/audit/rules.d
directory not supposed to be usable in RHEL6; but is in RHEL7?
