Synopsis

redhat-release enhancement update

Type/Severity

Product Enhancement Advisory

Topic

An enhanced redhat-release package is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2.

Description

The redhat-release package contains licensing information regarding, and identifies the installed version of, Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

This updated redhat-release package reflects changes made for the release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2.

In addition, this update adds the following enhancement:

• The tuned-profiles-realtime package has been added to Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server and Red Hat Enterprise Linux for Real Time. It contains a realtime profile used by the "tuned" utility to perform CPU isolation and IRQ tuning. When the profile is activated, it reads its variable section, which specifies the CPUs to be isolated, and moves all threads that may be moved off those CPU cores. (BZ#1237285)

Users of redhat-release are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which adds this enhancement.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
