Thank you both. The FAQ simply suggests “keep your OS up to date” and the 
referenced minimum kernel version is the one we’re already running so I’ll 
stick with that for now.

Subject: Re: [gpfsug-discuss] Upgrading kernel on RHEL

I think GPFS upgrades are a fine opportunity to check the FAQ and update to 
latest tested/supported OS versions. But please remember to check all 
components in the "Functional Support Matrices", and latest kernel tested.

All,

As a general rule, when updating GPFS to a newer release, would you perform a 
full OS update at the same time, and/or update the kernel too?

Just trying to gauge what other people do in this respect. Personally I’ve 
always upgraded everything at once – including kernel. Am I looking for trouble?

Cheers
Richard
