bjdea1 wrote on Sun, 18 September 2011 00:57I'm considering just switching repo's on my servers now (to Scientific Linux), and running a yum update. Seems simple enough and could solve the issue we're having. Thinking about it...
Please let us know how that works out. It should work. Now would be a good time since SL is at 6.1 and CentOS is still at 6.0 (although they are adding incremental updates now). So the conversion would update a lot of packages which lessens the chance of some wierd incompatibility coming up.
To the other poster asking about Scientific Linux stability. It is used by some of the largest Educational institutions in the world as well as CERN. I don't have any specific information but it's a forgone conclusion that there are large commercial organizations using it.
Regardless, because CentOS and SL are both just recompiled versions of RHEL they are almost identical and no reason they both should not be equally as stable.
