Hi Neel,

Thank you for your advice, but I was not planning to run away from CentOS. For what I need, it suits me perfectly

My question was exclusively about the migration process CentOS Linux to CentOS Stream Any advice on that migration would be much appreciated

Thanks

Hi all

As you might be aware, CentOS is switching from CentOS Linux to CentOS Stream https://www.centos.org/cl-vs-cs/

They provides a straightfowrarw way to migrate from Lunix to Stream: #dnf swap centos-linux-repos centos-stream-repos #dnf distro-sync

I have migrated a relay running in a small VM and everything seems to run fine

Before migrating my production relay, I would appreciate any feedback from other CentOS users on this migration: disk space required, eventual issues envountered and more generally do's & don'ts

I'm a FreeBSD user, but if you don't want CentOS Stream, there are AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux, both which focus on being a spiritual successor to pre-Stream CentOS.

For you, I'd recommend looking at Alma/Rocky as opposed to CentOS Stream, but IMHO you should compare all three. However I have never run RHEL-based distros as a "server" (I've always run FreeBSD there) so I can't tell you my experiences.

Thanks a lot!
