Status

SL7 at Zeuthen will become the default and recommended Linux version:

• Users and groups are encouraged to test their software packages for SL7-compliance

A test system is available: A virtual machine with an alias name of sl7.zeuthen.desy.de has been set up with a WGS configuration. It is meant to be used for tests and development, not for running production jobs.

There are currently no plans to provide SL7-based desktop systems.
