Hello,
I have just installed CentOS 7 onto two servers and applied all the current patches. There are currently two kernels installed:
# rpm -q kernel kernel-3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64 kernel-3.10.0-123.9.3.el7.x86_64
However, if I reboot the servers they both start up on the older kernel:
# uname -r 3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64
I would have expected them to restart using kernel 3.10.0-123.9.3. I know I can manually select the kernel to use at boot time (from the grub2 menu), but, as with CentOS 6, I would have expected the servers to reboot using the latest kernel automatically.
Has anyone else noticed this? Any ideas as to why it might be happening?
Thanks,
John.
Someone already pointed you to the upstream bug for this.
Uninstalling the original release kernel (3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64) should provide a workaround as the rest of the kernels should then be sorted in the correct order.
