[rhelv6-list] Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Release Candidate Available for Download

[Engineering Partner Management]

As mentioned during Red Hat Summit 2014 last week[1], we are excited to 
announce that Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Release Candidate (RC) is now 
publicly available for testing. A pre-release build of Red Hat 
Enterprise Linux 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 RC offers a near-final 
look at Red Hat’s flagship operating system crafted for the open hybrid 
cloud, building upon the feedback collected during the beta program[2] 
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Vital for helping Red Hat’s strategic partners facilitate full 
certification of their applications and systems with Red Hat Enterprise 
Linux 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 RC is now accessible to all 
interested parties, from end users to enterprises, seeking to gain 
insight into how Red Hat redefines the enterprise operating system.

Key features in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 RC include:

  * Expanded Windows interoperability capabilities, including 
integration with Microsoft Active Directory domains;
  * Significant file system enhancements, including XFS as the default, 
scaling to support file systems up to 500 TB;
  * Improved subsystem management through OpenLMI; and
  * Virtual machine (VM) migration from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 hosts 
to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 hosts without downtime or VM modification.
