[DISCUSS] drop support for CentOS6 with 4.10
Since 4.10 require JDK8, should we drop support for CentOS 6 as OS for
management-server and usage ?
all the Upgrade path tests I've made was by creating new management server
on CentOS 7 that have updated tomcat and openJDK 8. our packages (RPMs)
install well on centos7 and I'm not away somebody test them on centos6.
Should we call a vote on this? I'm writing the upgrade part of the release
notes and I would focus on centos7 only. we should also update our Quick
Install Guide...
Thanks,
PL

CentOS 6 <http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/CentOS6>
CentOS-6 updates until November 30, 2020
CentOS 7 <http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/CentOS7>
CentOS-7 updates until June 30, 2024
End of support dates from
https://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/General#head-fe8a0be91ee3e7dea812e8694491e1dde5b75e6d
Is there any reason why anyone would still be installing CentoOS6 on a
new installation?
I have not had any trouble running anything on CentoOS 7 that ran on
CentOS 6.
Is there any reason why someone would want to upgrade Cloudstack on a
Centos6 installation where upgrading to Centos 7 would be a problem.
It would certainly simplify documentation/instructions if one does not
have to sort through /etc/init.d... and systemctl ... at every step that
involves system functions.

Re: [DISCUSS] drop support for CentOS6 with 4.10

PL - yes Trillian has tested with CentOS6 + JDK8 with 4.10.0.0/master+.
JRE/JDK8 are available in additional repositories on CentOS6 so at least for 4.10.0.0 (already votes, to be announced) we cannot deprecate it. However, we can discuss that for 4.11.0.0 and onwards. However, I think unless we're breaking major compatibilities such as API, upgrades etc. we should not call the next release 5.x.

RE: [DISCUSS] drop support for CentOS6 with 4.10
Posted by Paul Angus <pa...@shapeblue.com>.
I would suggest that this would justify a 5.0 release.. might be a good time to get in any other major changes....
Kind regards,

Subject: [DISCUSS] drop support for CentOS6 with 4.10
Since 4.10 require JDK8, should we drop support for CentOS 6 as OS for management-server and usage ?
all the Upgrade path tests I've made was by creating new management server on CentOS 7 that have updated tomcat and openJDK 8. our packages (RPMs) install well on centos7 and I'm not away somebody test them on centos6.
Should we call a vote on this? I'm writing the upgrade part of the release notes and I would focus on centos7 only. we should also update our Quick Install Guide...
Thanks,
PL
