All,
There exists an update tool for moving from CentOS-6 to CentOS-7 .. the tool worked for awhile, but has gone into disrepair. It currently does not work (so don't use it !), but we would like to get it working and maintain it.
The following git trees are involved in the tool:
https://git.centos.org/summary/rpms!redhat-upgrade-tool
https://git.centos.org/summary/rpms!preupgrade-assistant
https://git.centos.org/summary/rpms!preupgrade-assistant-contents
https://git.centos.org/summary/openscap
The effort to keep this operational is a 'community effort' and it requires users from the community to volunteer to keep it functional. People often ask how they can help with the CentOS Project .. if you have the ability, this is one way.
While I might like to have such a tool, even Red Hat strongly discourages this process and urges doing complete re-installations in their release notes for RHEL 7. Is this really the best place to spend the effort?
