ELevate är ett projekt som syftar till att ge möjligheten att migrera mellan större versioner av RHEL-baserade distributioner från 7.x till 8.x. Den kombinerar Red Hats Leapp-ramverk med ett gemenskapsskapat bibliotek och en tjänst för den migreringsmetadatauppsättning som krävs för det.

First join us at #migration Mattermost channel. You can find the tool code here: https://github.com/AlmaLinux/leapp-repository/tree/almalinux and you can add/edit/interact with package metadata at https://pes.almalinux.org.

YMMV. Every environment is different and unique based on applications and configurations. Since this is still under development, to avoid any surprises, we highly recommend that you test migrations scenarios in a VM or sandbox before running a migration in production.

Currently ELevate provides Leapp data for migration from CentOS 7 to the following OS:

• AlmaLinux OS 8
• CentOS Stream 8
• EuroLinux 8
• Oracle Linux 8
• Rocky Linux 8

Ja. Alla dina data, applikationer och inställningar kommer att behållas.

Migreringen kräver att systemet startas om två gånger.

The Package Evolution Service stores package migration metadata. Metadata answers questions about how packages evolve between major distribution releases. PES supports several classes of rules for packages such as added, removed, renamed, split, merged, and so on. The service also allows everyone to improve the data by adding new actions or even create a custom dataset for packages from third-party or private repositories.

Nej. Vi respekterar Red Hats arbete och vår initiala datauppsättning tillhandahålls av AlmaLinux stiftelsen med bidrag från Oracle.

Metadata tillhandahålls under en Apache-licens.

The CentOS ecosystem is a very large and diverse community. We've developed this project in good faith in the hope that everyone in the community can use and contribute to, no matter which distro you prefer. That's the open source way.
