Novell offers RHEL, CentOS support
Novell has launched a "competitive replacement" program aimed at luring Red Hat and CentOS users to its SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) product. Through the program, Novell will support customers' RHEL or CentOS servers for up to two years, while the customer migrates to SLES.
The program covers Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) versions 3, 4, and 5, for up to two years, or the end of their product lifecycle, whichever comes first. It also supports corresponding versions of CentOS, a free, community supported distribution compiled from Red Hat source code.
In order to support RHEL/CentOS users, Novell will, like CentOS (and Oracle, with its "Unbreakable Linux" offering), deliver security patches and feature upgrades as binaries built from Red Hat source code. The company will guarantee binary compatibility, it says.
