prerequisites: | ||
- You have completed, reviewed, and addressed any issues in a pre-conversion analysis report using Insights for the systems you plan to convert. | ||
description: |- | ||
Convert your operating system from CentOS Linux 7 to Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7. | ||
introduction: |- | ||
After running the “Pre-conversion analysis for converting to RHEL” task and resolving all reported issues, use this quick start to convert your CentOS Linux 7 systems to RHEL 7. | ||
<br> | ||
<br> | ||
Before performing the conversion, make sure you have completed all necessary [preparation steps.](https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/converting_from_an_rpm-based_linux_distribution_to_rhel/converting-using-insights_converting-from-a-linux-distribution-to-rhel) | ||
<br> | ||
Additional information: | ||
- It is possible to convert systems from other Linux distributions. [View supported conversion paths.](https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/converting_from_an_rpm-based_linux_distribution_to_rhel/con_supported-conversion-paths_converting-from-a-linux-distribution-to-rhel) | ||
- You can convert to RHEL using several supported methods depending on your requirements. [View supported conversion methods.](https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/converting_from_an_rpm-based_linux_distribution_to_rhel/conversion-methods_converting-from-a-linux-distribution-to-rhel) | ||

- title: Convert a CentOS 7 system to RHEL 7 using Insights | ||
description: |- | ||
[Before converting, back up your systems and verify that you can restore them if needed]{{admonition important}} | ||
[To avoid serious problems after the conversion, do not convert any systems with unresolved inhibitors and warnings in the pre-conversion analysis.]{{admonition important}} | ||
After running the “Pre-conversion analysis for converting to RHEL” task and resolving all reported issues, you can convert your CentOS Linux 7 systems to RHEL 7. The conversion task generates a conversion report detailing the systems that were successfully converted and summarizing any problems for any that were not.<br> | ||
**Run the conversion task:** | ||
1. Log into the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console and go to **Red Hat Insights > RHEL > Automation toolkit > Tasks.** | ||
1. Locate the **Convert to RHEL from CentOS 7 Linux** task and click **Select systems.** | ||
1. You can rename the task name. It will be used on the report generated. | ||
1. Select the CentOS Linux 7 systems you want to convert to RHEL and click **Run task.** | ||
[The conversion process can take up to an hour to complete.]{{admonition note}} | ||
- title: Review conversion report | ||
description: |- | ||
1. Go to the **Activity tab** and find the newly generated conversion report. Select the report to view a summary of the status of each system. | ||
1. After task completion, you can review each system and message:<br> | ||
<br> | ||
Each issue is assigned a severity level. | ||
- **Inhibitor:** The conversion failed because converting would very likely result in a deteriorated system state. This issue must be resolved before converting the affected system. | ||
- **Overridable inhibitor**: The conversion failed because converting would very likely result in a deteriorated system state. This issue must be resolved or manually overridden before converting. | ||
- **Skipped:** The conversion failed because the Conversion task could not run one or more tests. This issue must be resolved before converting the affected system. | ||
- **Converted:** The system has been converted. Reboot this system. | ||
1. If a system has been successfully converted with no issues, reboot the system and skip the next step. | ||
1. If the system was not converted, review the message for more information on the found problems and how to resolve them. Additionally, verify the following:<br> | ||
- You have completed all the steps to [prepare for a conversion using Insights.] (https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/converting_from_an_rpm-based_linux_distribution_to_rhel/converting-using-insights_converting-from-a-linux-distribution-to-rhel) | ||
- The system contains all packages required for the conversion. | ||
- The system is running. | ||
- You have resolved all issues in the Pre-conversion analysis for converting to RHEL task. | ||
1. After rebooting the system that has been successfully converted, remove third-party packages from the original OS that remained unchanged. These are typically packages that do not have a RHEL counterpart. To get a list of these packages, use:<br> | ||
- `# yum list extras --disablerepo="*" --enablerepo=`{{copy}}<br> | ||
- Add your repository after `enablerepo`. | ||
1. **Optional:** Perform an in-place upgrade to RHEL 9 to ensure your system is updated with the latest enhancements, security features, and bug fixes.<br> | ||
<br> | ||
For more information, see the [Upgrading from RHEL 7 to RHEL 8] (https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/upgrading_from_rhel_7_to_rhel_8/index) and [Upgrading from RHEL 8 to RHEL 9] (https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9/html/upgrading_from_rhel_8_to_rhel_9/index) guides. | ||
