Focus on plymouth or run below cmd in shell. # cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor (Beta) release 7.2 (20151112.1.el7ev) Actual results: Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor (Beta) release 7.2 (20151112.1.el7ev) Expected results: Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor release 7.2 (Beta) (20151112.1.el7ev) Additional info:
What is the reason for requesting this change? Why is the current position not good?
In RHEL, it show as Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.2 Beta In RHEV-H: Plymouth shown correctly. But in /etc/redhat-release, it shouw as: Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor (Beta) release 7.2 (20151112.1.el7ev) So I suggest it should be: Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor release 7.2 (Beta) (20151112.1.el7ev) Please see the attachment "RHEL VS RHEV-H" for more details.

Getting the positioning of the Beta keyword right in plymouth and in the os-release is not a one shot thing.
We have seen - again - that the re-positioning of the "beta" string can lead to broken builds. The benefit of this fix does not justify the risk. Thus closing this bug.
