RHEL 7 Upgrade fails from RHEL 6.6
I have followed the below setps while performing the RHEL 7 upgrade:
1) intsall prerequisite RHEL 7 package openscap, pcredevel, mod_wsgi,preupgrade-assistant, redhat-upgrade-tool.
2) Then run preupg check command. I am attaching the my results as an html.
3) Then mount the RHEL 7 ISO ( As I donot have Satellite facility) to the system and then import the RHEL 7 GPG key .
yum import RPM-GPG-KEY-redhat-release
4) As in RHEL 6 selinux is enabled in permissive mode I have run the following command
semodule -r sandbox
5) Then run the redhat-upgrade-tool and reboot with following option
redhat-upgrade-tool --device /dev/sr0 --cleanup-post
6) After reboot of the RHEL6.6 it performs some upgarde option and finally it make the system unusable
telinit: /lib64/lib.so.6 : Version 'GLIBC2_14' Not found
init:rcS post-stop process 991 terminated with status 1 and then hang.
can you please suggest some option so that my inplace upgrade will be successful.

Hi,
telinit is a part of Upstart, the init system used on RHEL6, however, it seems to complain that it cannot find the 2.14 version of the libc library, which is somewhat peculiar because RHEL6 comes with glibc 2.12. Have you, by any chance, done some changes to the base system?
Anyway, I see from the attached output of the preupg tool that there are some items that need action prior to attempting the upgrade. Based on your description of the upgrade process, you did not take care of those. Do that before trying the upgrade again.
Also, you do not need to mount the ISO before running the redhat-upgrade-tool command. Just use the --iso argument. See How do I upgrade from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7? for detailed information on how to perform the in-place upgrade.
