The CentOS Atomic SIG has released an updated version
(https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Atomic/Download) of
CentOS Atomic Host (7.1804), a lean operating system designed to run
Linux containers, built from standard CentOS 7 RPMs, and tracking the
component versions included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux Atomic Host.

This release, which is based on the RHEL 7.5 source code, now ships
without any baked-in Kubernetes rpms, which makes it simpler for users
to layer their preferred Kubernetes or OpenShift packages onto the
host.

CentOS Atomic Host includes these core component versions:

atomic-1.22.1-3.git2fd0860.el7.x86_64
cloud-init-0.7.9-24.el7.centos.x86_64
docker-1.13.1-63.git94f4240.el7.centos.x86_64
etcd-3.2.18-1.el7.x86_64
flannel-0.7.1-3.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-862.2.3.el7.x86_64
ostree-2018.1-4.el7.x86_64
rpm-ostree-client-2018.1-1.atomic.el7.x86_64

Download CentOS Atomic Host

CentOS Atomic Host is available as a VirtualBox or libvirt-formatted
Vagrant box, or as an installable ISO, qcow2 or Amazon Machine image.

Upgrading

If you’re running a previous version of CentOS Atomic Host, you can
upgrade to the current image by running the following command:

# atomic host upgrade

Release Cycle

The CentOS Atomic Host image follows the upstream Red Hat Enterprise
Linux Atomic Host cadence. After sources are released, they’re rebuilt
and included in new images. After the images are tested by the SIG and
deemed ready, we announce them.
