Description
Time is at a premium both at home and at work, so why spend your time building a DIY operating system solution? Why not partner with a company like Red Hat to help guide your organization to excellent efficiency. You can take RHEL-like systems and convert them in place with the Convert2RHEL utility! This process no longer requires a complete rebuild of your infrastructure either.

Good
morning,
good
afternoon,
good
evening,
wherever
you're
healing
from
welcome
to
another
episode
of
rel,
presents
red
hat
enterprise
linux
presents,
I
am
chris
short
host
with
the
most
of
red
hat
live
streaming
today,
we're
talking
about
convert
to
rel,
right
eric
and
we're
going
to
start
this
demo,
pretty
quick
and
then
kind
of
work.
Our
way
back,
if
that
makes
sense,.
B
B
B
A
B
B
B
Trickery
here
it's
it's
a
rel
fedora
like
system,
we're
running
centos,
linux,
eight
and
then,
and
then,
if,
if
you
were
so
inclined,
we're
running
4.18,
that's
a
whole
bunch
of
stuff
for
the
kernel
version.
So
as
you
can
see,
no
no
trickery
and
and
since
we're
starting
with
centos
linux,
8,
there's
no
need
to
make
sure
that
we're
registered
because
we're
not
registered
yet.
B
B
B
So
the
the
first
step
that
we
need
to
do
is
convert
to
rel
is
a
supported
operation
for
as
as
a
red
hat
customer.
So
there
is
a
convert
to
rel
repository
where
you
can
go
and
get
the
official
packages
to
where
you
can
check.
The
gpg
keys
make
sure
that
you're
getting
what
you
think
you're
getting
instead
of
instead
of
just.
A
B
B
B
B
We
talked
about
doing
a
day
in
the
life
interview,
but
the
the
guests
that
we
we'd
asked
to
to
come
on
the
show
weren't
available
this
week
so
we're
we
actually
punted
that
topic
and
we
we
pulled
this
one
out
of
reserve
by
popular
request.
Last,
I
think
two
weeks
ago
we
had
someone
ask
for
a
convert
to
rel
conversation,
so
we're
doing
that
one
today
and
then
in
two
weeks,
we'll
do
a
day
in
the
life
of
an
operating
system.
Engineer,
but
there's
one
other
caveat.
B
B
More
so
you
remember
than
than
our
audience
so
if
we,
if
we
cut
out
the
the
convert
to
rel
repository
file,
we
we
see
it's
pulling
straight
from
the
red
hat.
Cdn
we're
doing
a
gpg
check,
so
we
pulled
down
the
repo
file
and
the
gpg
key.
So
we
should
be
good
to
go
there,
and
if
you
don't
do
this,
this
is
like
rebooting
a
system
for
for
packages.
I
pretty
much
anytime.
I
do
some
kind
of
an
operation.
B
I
do
a
yum
clean
all
ahead
of
it
just
to
clear
out
any
any
temporary
files.
Anything
that's
partially
downloaded
it
and
if
nothing
else,
it
just
makes
me
feel
better.
Just
knowing
that
I'm
starting
fresh,
it's
probably
good
practice,
especially
when
you've
added
or
and
or
removed
repositories
to
just
go
ahead
and
clean
out
that
cash
yeah.
B
B
All
right
so
then,
because
I'm
lazy
and
don't
want
to
tap
y
later
in
the
command
just
do
it.
Yum
install
dash
y
convert
to
rel
that'll,
pull
down
the
utility
all
the
dependencies,
so
it's
the
downside
to
yum
clean
all
is.
It
does
have
to
pull
down
its
its
index
of
all
the
packages
from
each
of
the
registered
repositories,
but
I
cannot
tell
you,
after
a
decade
of
being
the
patch
guy
at
just
about
every
job.
I
was
a
systems
administrator
for
it
became
a
running
joke.
B
Really,
I'd
started
a
new
job
and
it's
like
hey.
We've
we've
been
trying
to
we've
been
trying
to
nail
down
our
patch
cycle.
Can
can
you
help
us
with
that?
Well,
funny
enough!
That's
what
I
did
in
my
last
job
and
just
over
and
over,
I
ended
up
becoming
the
patch
guy,
so
I
don't
know
how
many
times
I've
been
sitting
on
on
patch
night
and
trying
to
get
updates
to
run
it
just
won't
work
and
go
figure
yum
clean
all
it
fixes
it
so
it
just.
A
B
B
A
B
A
A
B
A
A
B
A
B
A
A
A
B
B
B
A
B
B
A
B
A
A
A
B
A
B
A
A
A
It
was
just
like
wow,
okay,
everything,
but
this
one
neighborhood,
even
like
the
back
half
of
our
neighborhood,
doesn't
have
power.
It's
like
wow,
that's
that's
one
little
part
of
the
neighborhood,
okay,
all
right!
Well,
whatever
I
did
on
those
trouble
tickets,
they
fixed
it
good,
so
yeah
I
actually
have
a
status
page
for
my
house,
because
comcast
was
so
bad.
At
one
point
I
had
to
prove
to
them
fix
something:
it's
not
between
the
house
and
the
curb.
I
promise
you
right.
You
know.
B
A
A
B
A
B
A
B
B
B
B
A
B
B
A
A
B
B
A
A
B
A
Well,
this
is
this
is
why
we
say
you
know
one
of
our
tips.
You
know
pre-show
before
we
go
live.
I
typically
tell
people
three
things.
One
of
them
is,
you
know,
failure
is
great.
We
all
just
see
failure,
because
failure
teaches
people
how
to
troubleshoot
just
didn't
realize
it
was
gonna,
be
this
kind
of
troubleshooting.
B
B
A
A
B
B
A
B
A
B
A
A
A
B
Oh
lovely
so,
coming
soon
to
a
red
hat
youtube
channel
near
you
is
rel
tech
tips
and
it's
going
to
be
short
five
to
ten
minute
videos
that
hosted
by
yours.
Truly
that
walks
you
through
how
to
do
a
particular
operation,
whether
that's
a
convert
to
rel
or
an
in-place
upgrade
or
we've
got
some
changes
to
image
builder
that
are
coming
out
here
soon
and
those
I'm
going
to
have
very
well
edited
videos
coming
out,
walking
you
through
very
specific
operations.
B
B
Yeah
yeah
exactly
actually
much
quicker,
so
so
I've
carried
out
the
etsy
release,
file,
I've
curled
the
gpg
key
and
then,
as
we
hit
play
on
this
video,
I
do
have
a
trick
up
my
sleeve.
Apparently
we
pull
down
the
we
purl,
we
curl
down
the
convert
to
rail
repo
file.
We
install
convert
to
rel
and
the
dependencies
and
look
how
fast
that
worked.
B
So
currently,
currently
ubuntu,
suse
and
and
some
others
aren't
supported
because
they
are
just
too
far
different
right.
This
only
works
on
oracle
enterprise
and
centos
at
at
the
present,
because
they're
they're,
both
rel
clones
they're,
both
very
rare
rel
like
so
there's
a
lots
of
there's
a
lot
of
similarities
between
the
two.
Let
me
see
if
I
can
back
up
here
and
grab
the
top
of
that
command
before
it
just
blows
away.
B
B
B
B
And,
and
so
now,
what
it's
doing
is
it's
going
through
and
it's
replacing
some
some
python
libraries,
what
converter
rel
does
from
a
high
level.
Sorry
I'll
get
back
on
my
and
get
back
into
into
my
my
talk
here
now
that
we've
subverted
all
of
the
issues
we've
seen
today.
What
convert
to
rel
does
is
it
takes
all
the
centos
built
packages
and
replaces
them
with
rel
specific
packages?
B
So
if,
if
you
have
a
kernel
package
or
a
python
library
that
was
built
by
centos,
it
pulls
that
that
package
out
and
replaces
it
with
something
that
was
built
and
signed.
That's
the
key
built
and
signed
by
red
hat.
So
when
you
download
the
gpg
key,
that's
that's
what
that
gpg
check
is
during
a
yum
install.
B
This
is
verifying
that
the
signature
on
the
package
and
the
signature
on
the
key
match
so
that
you
know
where
it
came
from
nowadays,
one
of
the
biggest
security
concerns
we
see
in
the
industry
is
this
whole
insecure
supply
chain.
So,
whether
it's
and
it's
usually
not
the
application
itself,
it's
usually
some
upstream
library
that
someone
just
did
a
git
clone
on
and
started
building
off
of
that
had
been
either
either
a
lot
of
times.
You'll
see
something
that's
spelled
very
closely
to
the
official
library.
B
So
if
you
mistype
it,
you
get
the
the
compromise
package
as
opposed
to
the
official
package,
or
someone
has
actually
compromised
the
the
official
repository
for
one
of
those
upstream
libraries.
So
you
that's.
That
is
one
of
the
biggest
reasons
why
you'd
want
to
do
a
convert
to
rel
is
so
that
you
get
that
support.
If
something
goes
wrong,
red
hat
is
there
to
make
sure
that
things
are.
B
Things
are
fixed.
You've
got
red
hat
security
team,
that's
constantly
running
scans,
checking
packages
verifying
key
integrities,
so
you
just
so
having
red
hats,
manage
your
operating
system
versus,
say.
Centos
just
ensures
that
extra
layer
of
protection-
so
that's
what
it's
doing
here
is
it's
installing
the
subscription
manager
package
and
some
of
the
python
libraries
we'll
go
ahead
and
hit
play.
B
So
now
it's
so
now
it
is
going
out
to
out
to
the
red,
hat's
subscription
service
and
registering
my
my
system,
which
is
sent
to
rel8
very,
very
creative
name.
Here
I
know
yes,
it's
enabling
the
repositories
that
we
need.
So
that's
the
rel
eight
base,
os
and
rel8
app
stream
repositories,
see
it
just
it
verified
all
of
the
available
repositories.
B
So
if
we,
if
we
were
doing
if,
if
this
system
required
say
the
bluster
for
instance
repository,
it
would
make
sure
that
we've
got
that
repository
available,
although
it's
not
enabled
now,
so
it's
not
going
to
be
enabled
after
the
fact
so
there's
several
checks
within
the
convert
to
rail
process
that
it
asks
hey.
Are
you
sure
this
is
what
we're
doing
you
know
you?
Can
you
can
still?
B
So
we'll
go
ahead
and
say
yes
to
that,
and
then
the
convert
to
rail
process
goes
in
and
grabs
the
the
core
kernel
packages,
any
of
the
any
modules
that
we
have
and
it
says,
hey,
I'm
getting
ready
to
replace
these
things
are
starting
to
get
kind
of
real
here,
because
I
love
the
error
message
says
you
know:
there's
basically
there's
no
turning
back
unless
you
reboot
and
restore
from
a
snapshot
yeah.
So
so
here
convert
to
rel
successfully
imported
its
gpg
keys.
Unlike
whatever
was
going
on
with
my
with
my
demonstration.
B
B
B
A
B
A
A
B
B
B
But
under
like
this,
this
particular
demonstration
took
about
the
video
itself
is
about
eight
minutes
long,
so
right
around
eight
minutes
to
do
a
conversion.
This
is
a
very
vanilla
system,
a
very
small
system
right,
so
that
that
time
is
going
to
fluctuate.
Based
on
how
many
resources
you
have
available
right,
how
many
packages
you
have
installed,
how
many
packages
you
have
installed.
So
this
this
doesn't
have
anything
not
even
like
a
web
browser.
B
So
it's
a
very,
very
small
from
a
package
perspective,
but
on
average,
we've
seen
about
10
to
15
minutes
and
what's
great,
is
if
you're,
a
satellite
customer
or
if
you're,
heavily
using
ansible
you
can
actually
especially
satellite,
has
either
has
now
or
will
with
6.10,
have
a
one-click
support
for
doing
convert
to
rel.
So
if,
if
you
have
a
bunch
of
centos
systems,
say
you
want
to
convert
your
your
dev
environment
over
and
see
how
that
process
goes?
B
You
can
do
a
couple
of
tests
manually
like
this
and
then
after
that
you
can
select
groups
of
packages
or
groups
of
servers
to
to
do
this,
and
it's
as
you
can
see,
after
basically,
after
the
initial
command,
it
was
all
hands
off
up
until
this
point,
where
it
says
hey,
it
was
con.
It
was
successful.
It's
gone
through
and
replaced
all
of
our
packages.
B
B
B
And
then
get
ready
for
the
the
fanfare
and
the
tadas,
because
we
are
now
officially
running
red
hat
enterprise
linux
8.4,
which
means
that
our
system
is
fully
supported.
We
we
get
all
of
the
all
the
support,
all
the
signed
packages,
all
all
of
the
benefit
of
having
a
full-blown
rel
system.
You
can
pick.
A
B
B
B
A
B
Once
8.5
goes
live,
we
could
revisit
this
and
maybe
in
a
maybe
not
a
full
hour
but
and
at
least
kind
of
or
just
check
out,
the
tech
tip
video
when
it
comes
out
hey
that
works
too.
It's
about
seven
and
a
half
minutes
long
and
and
if
you
can't
tell
I
talk
fast,
so
we
can
you,
can
you
can
fast
forward
through
that
fairly
quickly
and
see
this
process
from
start
to
finish
and
you'll
have
already
seen
the
footage
a
lot
of
it
anyway.
A
A
B
A
A
B
Sadly,
when
when
I
was
in
sales
for
gitlab,
I
thought
I
was
set,
it
was
one
of
my
first
demos
live
to
a
customer
right
out
of
right
out
of
right
out
of
onboarding
and
boot
camp
and
all
that
kind
of
stuff
I
was,
I
was
ready
to
go.
I
had
I
had
my
my
my
demo
in
my
home
lab
and
if
that
one
didn't
work,
I
had
gitlab.com
and
I
actually
had
I'd
pre-run
a
pipeline.
So
I
was
like
here.
B
A
B
And
so
I
I
had
three
layers
of
redundancy
which
my
operations
rather
than
out
there
can
say
that
you
know
three
three's
good
four
is
better,
but
three
is
good
yeah.
I
thought
I
was
set
get
into.
We
we
go
through
the
sales
part
of
the
conversation,
the
guy
hands
it
off
to
me
he's
a
new
account
essay
he's
he's
going
to
be
on
your
on
your
account
moving
forward
and
he
just
kind
of
wants
to
talk
you
through
what
you
know
this
new
pipeline
feature
whatever
it
was
yeah
and
started.
B
My
demo
off
and
pipeline
wouldn't
wouldn't
kick
off.
It
wouldn't
start
a
new
process
like
okay,
but
it's
okay,
because
I
prepared
for
this
went
to
the
other
project.
Couldn't
couldn't
kick
off
the
couldn't
kick
off.
The
pipeline
could
figure
it
out
like
okay,
so
you've
seen
the
process
up
to
the
point
of
of
kicking
off
the
pipeline.
Now
I
can
go
to
to
my
to
my
other
other
backup
right
where
I've
already
run
this
process,
and
I,
as
as
much
as
I'm
sitting
here
in
front
of
you
right
now,
virtually
get
labs.
