1. Summary:

 

This is the final notification for the retirement of Red Hat Enterprise

Linux 6.5 Extended Update Support (EUS). This notification applies only to

those customers subscribed to the Extended Update Support (EUS) channel for

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5.

3. Description:

 

In accordance with the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Errata Support Policy,

Extended Update Support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 was retired on

November 30, 2015, and support will no longer be provided. Accordingly, Red

Hat will no longer provide updated packages, including Critical impact

security patches or urgent priority bug fixes, for Red Hat Enterprise Linux

6.5 EUS after November 30, 2015. In addition, technical support through Red

Hat's Global Support Services will be limited as described under

"non-current minor releases" in the Knowledge Base article located at

https://access.redhat.com/articles/64664 after this date.

 

We encourage customers to migrate from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 to a

more recent version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. As a benefit of the Red

Hat subscription model, customers can use their active subscriptions to

entitle any system on any currently supported Red Hat Enterprise Linux

release.
