Update RHEL 6.9 glibc from 2.12 to >=2.17

Hi All,
I tried to update glibc to 2.17, but the latest version provided by redhat for RHWL 6.9 is 2.17. I tried to build from sources and ended up in kernel Panic Error. reverted the changes using rescue mode.

is there any way to update my glibc to 2.17 safely in RHEL 6.9?

Note: I'm trying to build tensorflow from sources since there is no build for redhat.

Pls help on this.

Thanks in Advance.
