Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2 Adds 64K Page Sizes Support for ARM, New System Roles
Coming six months after Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.1, the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2 is here to introduce support for 64k page sizes for Arm architecture to make it possible to deploy the operating system on more hardware and maximize the performance of large data set workloads, expanded capabilities of system roles to let you automate even more management tasks, as well as enhancements to Podman, Red Hat’s tool for developing, managing and running containers on Linux platforms.
The new Red Hat Enterprise Linux system role for Podman included with the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2 release enables administrators to automate configurations for their specific needs and environments without requiring knowledge of the command line. In addition, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2 updates several other system roles enabling automation of SQL Server/Active Directory authentication, support for SQL Server 2022, and Always-On availability group support.

Speed innovation with new features in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2 and 8.8
It’s no secret that IT organizations are asked to do more than ever before. While earlier digital transformation efforts were often limited in scope to a single business unit or platform, today’s initiatives are frequently far more expansive. IT teams are now expected to execute end-to-end transformation projects, connecting technology, people and processes across their organizations. These projects encompass a broad spectrum of infrastructure, tools, operations and requirements, significantly increasing complexity and risk.
That’s where Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) comes in. Trusted by IT organizations for more than 20 years, RHEL provides a more flexible, stable and consistent platform for building and deploying applications and services across hybrid environments with less effort. And, with RHEL 9.2 and 8.8, we’ve added more features and capabilities to help you innovate more quickly, streamline your infrastructure, better protect your workloads and data, and operate with confidence. RHEL 9.2 is available today on the Red Hat Customer Portal for all customers with active Red Hat Enterprise Linux subscriptions. RHEL 8.8 will be available soon.

In the 1990s, Nike staked its claim on innovative athletic performance with the iconic marketing campaign Just Do It. Today, many memes exist with a throwback to this vintage slogan with visions of brains and the command of Just Use It. Those of us working on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) think the same thing for optimal performance without worry when it comes to RHEL for SAP Solutions and our 9.2 release.
The new capabilities in RHEL are dedicated to helping organizations attack the complexity of the hybrid cloud, with features that deliver a more repeatable, scalable, easy to manage Linux estate across the footprint-agnostic, multi/hybrid cloud. This alone makes the life of the administrator easier and more efficient, and lowers the bar to entry for new administrators.
