Key New Features & Enhancement :-
- Identity Management
System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) enhancements improve the interoperability experience with [Microsoft Active Directory] by providing centralized identity access control for Linux/Unix clients in a heterogeneous environment.
- File system
pNFS (Parallel NFS) client (file layout only) remains in technology preview, however now delivers performance improvements with the addition of Direct I/O for faster data access. This drives particular performance benefits for I/O intensive use cases including database workloads.
- Virtualization
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 now includes the Microsoft Hyper-V Linux drivers, which were recently accepted by the upstream Linux community, improving the overall performance of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 as a guest on Microsoft Hyper-V.
Installation support for VMware and Microsoft Hyper-V para-virtualization drivers. This new feature enhances the user deployment experience of Red Hat Enterprise Linux as a guest in either of these virtualization environments.
In this release, KVM virtualization virtio-scsi support, a new industry storage architecture, provides industry leading storage stack scalability.
- Management
The use of swap functionality over NFS enables more efficient read/write tradeoffs between local system memory and remote disks. This capability increases performance in very large, disk-less server farms seen in ISP and Web hosting environments.
Enhancement in c-groups delivers the ability to migrate multi-threaded applications without errors.
Optimized perf tool for the latest Intel processors
- Storage
New system log features identify mapping from block device name to physical device identifier – allowing an administrator to easily locate specific devices as needed.
