PHP 5.6 Installation / Advice

Latest response

We have a situation where PHP 5.4 has been flagged by our security scanner as not being up2date. The only other version that is available to use via normal channels is 5.4.16-4x. If we use the RHSC we have access to PHP 5.6 but I feel like this poses all sorts of downwind configuration problems. For instance it installs in /opt and has an odd directory structure that our team is unfamiliar with. It appears that it also requires the RHSC version of apache also installed in /opt.

Will Satellite pick these installs up and notify of patches when they become available? What is the turn around on patches for the RHSC products? Will I get security / bug alerts via my normal channels?
