A live in place RHEL upgrade via something like 'yum' may not be supported,
but I believe that an Anaconda based upgrade is fully supported. Though
'supported' might include you having to redo customizations to config
files & the like.
agreed and most importantly - all discussions of what is or is not
possible for rhel is offsubject. My bad for even mentioning it.
