Oracle will provide their own kernel for RHEL 6, will Red Hat Support ?

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • Oracle will provide their own kernel for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, will Red Hat Support it?
  • The  document https://access.redhat.com/sites/default/files/oracle_on_rhel_with_or_without_asm_asmlib_0.pdf states that Oracle will provide their own kernels for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, which will work in combination with ASMLib.
  • What is the view of Red Hat Support on this when clients with a RHEL6 Red Hat Support contract, start using a Oracle provided kernel on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 to make use of ASMlib?

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6
  • Oracle ASM
  • Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel (UEK)
