RHEL

I spent three days on the expo floor at Open Source Summit 2026 in Minneapolis with Howard Van Der Wal and Stephen Simpson, and it was one of the better events we have done this year.

I wrote this guide for CIQ covering how to convert a running RHEL system to RLC Pro, without rebuilding servers or re-certifying your application stack.

A companion to RHEL Presents episode 82, where Nate and I talk with Noah Chelliah about community, careers, and getting people on-ramped into open source.

A Dell PowerEdge R730 that’s been sitting in the rack collecting dust finally has a job: and this stream is the whole messy process of giving it one.

A quick companion to Fedora Podcast episode 42, where we dug into EPEL — how it works, why sysadmins trust it, and what’s new in EPEL 10. Watch or listen right here.

A quick companion to Fedora Podcast episode 38, where Adam Williamson walks Noah and me through Fedora QA, how software gets vetted, and how you can help. Watch or listen right here.

In my last episode as host, Brian and I bring on three guests to demo a full GitOps pipeline deploying and testing RHEL workloads on Azure with Ansible Automation Platform.

The finale of the Satellite miniseries, where Richard and I use Ansible system roles, host groups, and OpenSCAP to standardize and manage RHEL at scale.

In episode three, Richard and I recap the build so far and dig into patching, scheduled jobs, and CVE mitigation with Red Hat Satellite.

Richard and I make Satellite useful by adding systems and packages, setting up repositories, content views, host groups, and activation keys.

The first episode of our Satellite miniseries, where Richard Rios and I stand up a Red Hat Satellite server from scratch, live.

Brian Smith and I talk with Cedric Clyburn and the Podman Desktop team about the AI Lab extension, which downloads, serves, and builds with LLMs on your own laptop.
