What's going on with the vzkernel repos? Seems 042stab037.1 is now the most recent kernel stored anywhere? Was there a global disk crash or something?

It's kind of unfortunate how the developers went about this. First they recommended everyone upgrade to the RHEL6 branch as soon as it went stable. Then when a bunch of people did this they had all kinds of stability problems. Then after people (like me) upgraded to the latest stable kernel to fix the problems the developers then decided they wanted a testing branch and put my supposedly stable kernel into the testing branch. Then I ended up having high I/O problems with my kernel after a few weeks and have now downgraded to the supposedly stable (not really) 37.1 kernel.
This all seems kind of unusual to me to have the developers jerk everyone around like this. I know it caused me more problems then it should have simply because I listened to the developers who recommended I upgrade rather than just delaying production rollout of the RHEL6 kernel and take a wait and see approach. Now I'm kind of stuck with the only stable RHEL6 kernel (37.1) which isn't all that stable.
But OpenVZ is open source so what can I do but just live with it, file bug reports and hope for the best I guess.

seanfulton wrote on Sun, 30 October 2011 09:22I don't think splitting stable and development as separate branches means RHEL6 is not stable. It's exactly the same format they used on RHEL5 and it worked.
I found that many of the "testing" kernels on RHEL5 were as stable as the "stable" kernels (sometimes more so). But the fact is, RHEL6 is very stable and production quality. I have two machines (25.1 and 37.1) which have no problems. 36.6 does have some bite to it though.
The real question is why does yum update vzkernel try to download 39.3 when 37.1 is the latest stable. And why does it try to download a kernel that isn't stable. It seems to me that yum update vzkernel should do the right thing, whatever the developers feel that is.
Seems the repo might need some work.
Great job on RHEL6 though!

Lot's of people having problems with 37.1 kernel which is currently the ONLY stable branch kernel for RHEL6. Just because you are not having problems does not mean it's stable.
