CentOS 6.4 64 bits Support Concern
Hi Everyone,
This is my first post on this Web, anyway i did research a lot.
So, i am security consultant and we have a software wich runs under Cent OS 6.4. We need to install this OS on a Dell Server. The first info i had tells me that Extended Update Support (EUS) for this Cent OS version has already finished. (https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata#Extended_Life_Cycle_Phase)
According the following link (http://linux.dell.com/files/supportmatrix/RHEL_Support_Matrix.pdf), Dell R720, R710 and R420 does supports this Cent OS version, but as far as i know those servers are under it's EOL, so there are not on sell anymore.
On the other hand, Dell R730 and R740 does support Cent OS 6.5-6.9. Why they did not say anything about previous Cent OS versions? Because they already reach it's EUS?
Is there a way to have a Dell HW wich supports Cent OS 6.4 64 bit?
Is there any way to acomplish this kind of Support on Dell R730 or Dell R740?
Best Regards
