The Red Hat Enterprise Linux Team
As mentioned during Red Hat Summit 2014 last week, 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 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.

During the Red Hat Summit last week, Red Hat announced the release
candidate for the upcoming major release of its enterprise Linux
distribution - RHEL version 7: "For
those not attending Red Hat Summit 2014 or not tracking the latest news
and updates, you may have missed two important and exciting
announcements. A Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 release candidate (RC) will
be made publicly available (starting next week). As a pre-release build
of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 RC offers a
near-final look at the only operating system crafted for the open hybrid
cloud." Here is the brief release announcement.
As promised, the release candidate is now available for public testing.
Unlike the earlier beta, it has been split into Client, Server and
Workstation editions, all of which can be downloaded from Red Hat's FTP
