Description of problem:
Feedback from pstodulk on #1295312
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1295312#c6)
use of redhat-upgrade-tool command in section 1.1.2
is unlucky, because reader could really do that before he will use preupg
- maybe there could be some notice or something, that run of preupg before
inplace-upgrade is neccesary
- the better option should be maybe write this notice into the section 1.1.4
- 1.1.3.1 - I am not familiar with sattelite but there is mention only:
rhn-channel --add --channel rhel-x86_64-server-extras-6
Shouldn't be there even:
rhn-channel --add --channel rhel-x86_64-server-optional-6
??
- I am not familiar with repos in satellite, so I am really just asking.
It's possible that it shouldn't be there.
- 1.1.4
- 3)
- as mentioned above, it would be --enablerepo mentioned here
- I don't see mentioned anywhere, that old RHEL 6 packages are not
supported on RHEL 7. Maybe we could mention that redhat-upgrade-tool
has option "--cleanup-post", so old RHEL 6 packages should be removed
automatically
- 6) that's not completely truth. Not only for items marked as FIXED.
There exists even postupgrade scripts for modules marked as
need_inspection or need_action. I guess that text could be
reformulated. Maybe just something like:
Perform any post-upgrade tasks planned by Preupgrade Assistant
modules.
Could someone else formulate it better? It's just quick idea.
- 7) In output you see:
> Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.0 (Maipo)
That's just littleness but 7.3 would be better when we update the
article.
