RHEL5 BASE AND ADVANCED PLATFORM CHECK

[Caetano, Greg]

Check out http://www.redhat.com/rhel/compare/ for the comparison between the releases.

If you install Red Hat GAS and Cluster Suite you are considered running Advanced Platform under RHEL5

Just for informational purposes RHEL5 doesn't differentiate between es
and as as earlier versions.

Hi all,

In earlier version of RHEL one could simply dump out
/etc/redhat-release to determine if an install was WS, ES or AS. For
example:

    cat /etc/redhat-release
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon Update 4)

    cat /etc/redhat-release
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 4)

>From what I can find the distinction between AP and base Server has
been lost for release 5 with both showing:

    cat /etc/redhat-release
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5 (Tikanga)

Regards,
Lingu
