- Improved virtualization performance and scale
- New, optimized devices drivers for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 virtual guests deployed on the KVM hypervisor that we plan to include in future Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 releases. Support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 virtual guests running on Xen-based systems continues as before.
- Virtual guest support for up to 256 disk devices (increased from 16). This will allow the deployment of much larger virtualized applications.
- Improved Windows interoperability and file system support
- A Samba update to improve Microsoft Windows interoperability, which allows customers to deploy Red Hat Enterprise Linux as a secure, reliable, high performance, file server for Microsoft Windows environments.
- Samba support allows customers to attach Microsoft Windows clients to a Red Hat Enterprise Linux server without requiring Windows Client Access Licenses (CALs).
- An update to autofs (used to map file systems) provides increased reliability and stability.
- General performance improvements
- Includes three new “kernel tunables” that allow customers to optimize application performance by reducing latency and improving utilization.
- Updated high-speed networking support with enhancements to the Open Fabric Distribution Networking (OFED) software stack.
- Storage and filesystem enhancements
- Improved Device Mapper reporting is provided to help storage administrators.
- More information captured from HP active-passive arrays helps administrators monitor and configure storage in multipath high-availability configurations.
- Enhanced developer support
- Updated GNU Compiler Collection allows customers to compile applications on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 with compatibility with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. This helps customers prepare for moving applications to the newer Red Hat release.
