Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated v7 package that fixes several bugs and adds multiple enhancements is
now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Hardware Certification.
Description
v7, the Red Hat Enterprise Linux hardware certification test suite, verifies the
compatibility of hardware devices. Each v7 test run builds a results database
for submission to Red Hat's hardware catalog as an RPM package. v7 replaces Red
Hat Hardware Test Suite (HTS) for certifying hardware for use with Red Hat
Enterprise Linux.
This updated v7 package includes numerous bug fixes and enhancements. Space
precludes documenting all of these changes in this advisory. Users are directed
to the v7 Hardware Certification Test Suite 1 Technical Notes for information on
the most significant of these changes:
All users of v7 are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which provides
numerous bug fixes and enhancements.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
