- Mission: To stay as close to RedHat as possible
Issues: some things need to be modified to support this. For example
the
cpu/memory restrictions will be removed(like in CentOS-3).
Could you please share more information about this? What cpu/memory restrictions are in Centos 3 which are not present in RHEL3 ? This is
what I
am trying to discover which RHEL version like AS, ES or WS is Centos
based
on. I was under impression after reading Centros website documents that Centos is designed to be an almost 100% RHEL clone minus the copyrighted Redhat logos.
It's the other way around. RHEL has restrictions on amount of memory and number of cpu's. Check http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/comparison/
But this is why I am asking which RHEL branch CEntos follows mainly because I had gone through Redhat comparison documentation. Is Centos 3.3 based on RHEL AS which has higher limits or RHEL ES which has lower ones. Is it possible to base it to RHEL AS? Is the SRPMS for RHEL built on a RHEL AS build computer to generate CEntos RPMS?
