Hello Mahmoud Dabash,

For your answers, please start with this article at https://access.redhat.com/articles/2901061, and namely the topic near the bottom of the article with the title: Can I buy only one year of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 ELS Add-On..., it provides it's own answer with "Yes. The Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 ELS Add-On is available as a one-year offering and is renewable as needed."

See that link/article for more info, certainly contact Red Hat Customer Sales for additional information.

Kind Regards,

RJ

Mahmoud Dabash,

I'd recommend if possible considering a means to use a more current version of Red Hat Linux such as the most current version of RHEL 7.4 (as I type this, the most current version is version 7.4). If you needed a Red Hat entitlement for development purposes to evaluate whatever software has chained you to RHEL 5.11 - you can get a developer's entitlement for free by going to developers.redhat.com with your Red Hat login. You will receive an email after this. The email is basically a link to developers.redhat.com stating you accept the developer's agreement to use it for development purposes only. I bring this up so that you can consider testing/developing a means to use RHEL 7.4 in a development environment to come up with a means to transition from RHEL 5.11 to RHEL 7.4.

Kind Regards, -RJ

We currently use the "Red Hat Enterprise Linux Extended Life Cycle Support" which is an add-on to a regular subscription. So you purchase a normal Red Hat Enterprise Linux subscription and the extended life cycle support add-on.
