Release notes for RHEL 7,2

Cross channel package dependency improvements:

Yum has been enhanced to prompt the end user to search disabled package repositories on the system when a package dependency error occurs. This change will allow users to quickly resolve dependency errors by first checking all known channels for the missing package dependency.

To enable this functionality, execute yum update yum subscription-manager prior to upgrading your machine to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2.

Enable virtio network device renaming

This update adds a new persistent naming scheme for the virtio driver, which enables virtio network device renaming. To enable this feature in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2, add the net.ifnames=1 kernel parameter while booting

openldap rebase to version 2.4.40

The openldap packages have been upgraded to upstream version 2.4.40, which provides a number of bug fixes and one enhancement over the previous version. Notably, the ORDERING matching rules have been added to the ppolicy attribute type descriptions. Among the fixed bugs are: The server no longer terminates unexpectedly when processing SRV records, and missing objectClass information has been added, which enables the user to modify the front-end configuration by standard means.
