If you don't follow the Software Management guide then TAC may raise a concern if they see you running Broadworks on a version of RHEL that isn't officially supported. Broadworks R15 does give you the choice of RHEL4 or RHEL 5. I haven't looked at the docs for R16 which was just released in August. R17 is scheduled for April of 2010 and R18 is scheduled for late 2010. Based on those timelines I would choose RHEL5 if possible as I'm sure RHEL5 will become the only version supported. If you are thinking about R13 or R14, you may want to ask TAC if it's ok to run RHEL5. I do like the fact that RHEL5 uses YUM. <div><br></div><div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On Oct 1, 2009, at 10:59 AM, <<a href="mailto:Michael.Lively@cox.com">Michael.Lively@cox.com</a>> <<a href="mailto:Michael.Lively@cox.com">Michael.Lively@cox.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div><font face="Arial, sans-serif" size="2"><div>Hello all,</div><div> </div><div> </div><div>Does anyone have any information on advantages to running RHEL 5 for Broadsoft Application servers over RHEL 4? </div><div> </div><div>Specifically, are there any performance / scalability enhancements anyone has seen?</div><div><font face="Times New Roman, serif" size="3"> </font></div><a name="_MailAutoSig"></a><div>Michael Lively</div><div>Design Engineer</div><div>Cox Communications</div><div><a href="mailto:michael.lively@cox.com">michael.lively@cox.com</a></div><div>404-269-3415</div><div><font face="Times New Roman, serif" size="3"> </font></div><div><font face="Times New Roman, serif" size="3"> </font></div></font>_______________________________________________<br>VoiceOps mailing list<br><a href="mailto:VoiceOps@voiceops.org">VoiceOps@voiceops.org</a><br><a href="https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/voiceops">https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/voiceops</a><br></div></blockquote></div><br></div></div></div>_______________________________________________<br>VoiceOps mailing list<br><a href="mailto:VoiceOps@voiceops.org">VoiceOps@voiceops.org</a><br>https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/voiceops<br></blockquote></div><br></div></div></body></html>
