Plans on CentOS8 for UMD
- CentOS8 rebuild EOL in 2021 (was: May 2029), possible switch to CentOS8 Stream (maintained until August 2024) https://blog.centos.org/2020/12/future-is-centos-stream/ discussion ongoing, especially in WLCG
- CentOS7 will be maintained until June 2024
- Moving UMD4/C7 to UMD5/C7
- SL6 is retired, URT will not accept updates (unless critical and agreed with EGI Operations)
- RH life cycle as reference https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata#Life_Cycle_Dates
UMD5 with CentOS 7 and 8(?)
- Pros
- remove unsupported software in UMD-4 which makes keeping the repository consistent hard to the UMD team
- Cons
- Have to maintain 2 versions for a given period, along with a campaign to replace repo configuration on the sites is needed (replace UMD4/CentOS7 with UMD5/CentOS7)
Plan
- create UMD5/C7 with all products that offer support all over the next years (ideally until 2024)
- once it's ready, ask sites to switch: UMD4/C7 -> UMD5/C7; this will provide sites with a supported OS including officially supported products at least until 2024, and could allow starting the slow retirement of UMD4 (SL6 retirement starting at end of 2020, C7 to be eventually used only for products phasing out and doomed to dismission).
- UMD5/C8: collect feedback from the providers
