# RHEL 7 to CentOS 7 migration tool

## Usage

In order to convert your RHEL 7 operating system to CentOS 7 do the following:

1. Make a backup of the system. We didn't test all possible scenarios so there
is a risk that something goes wrong. In such a situation you will have a
restore point.
2. Download the [migrate_7.py](migrate_7.py) script:
```shell
$ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cloudlinux/rhel2centos/main/migrate_7.py
```
3. Run the script and check its output for errors:
```shell
$ sudo python migrate_7.py
...
The system is migrated to CentOS 7
```
4. Ensure that your system was successfully converted:
```shell
# check release file
$ cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core)

# check that the system boots CentOS kernel by default
$ sudo grubby --info DEFAULT | grep CentOS
title=CentOS Linux (3.10.0-1160.31.1.el7.x86_64) 7 (Core)
```
