The Time Zone Database Package (tzdata) provides Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) with the time zone information needed for all applications or runtimes in the operating system to print local time correctly. The GNU C Library (glibc) uses the tzdata package, so APIs like strftime() work correctly, while applications such as /usr/bin/date use this information to print the local date.The tzdata package contains the data files describing current and historic transitions for various time zones worldwide. This data represents changes required by local governments, time zone boundary changes, UTC off

Draft Redbooks, last updated: Thu, 30 Nov 2023 This IBM Redbooks publication will help you install, tailor and configure an automation environment using Ansible in an IBM Power server environment.

Automation is the cornerstone for simplifying complex infrastructure challenges. Self-healing infrastructure is a natural progression in automation that can help organizations efficiently manage, better secure and more effectively optimize their IT environments, including those hosting SAP workloads. This post walks you through the process of implementing this architecture using Red Hat Satellite, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), Red Hat Insights and Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform.Why do you need self-healing infrastructure?But first, why does self-healing infrastructure matter? With IT e

A real-time operating system (RTOS) is like a skilled orchestra conductor. A conductor coordinates and manages the timing and synchronization of many musicians and instruments to create a harmonious performance. An RTOS orchestrates the timing and execution of multiple tasks and processes in a computer system so that critical operations are completed precisely on time. This is known as determinism, and it’s the most important feature of RTOS because responses to inputs need to be returned within a set maximum time frame, usually measured in micro (µ) seconds. If you’re using or looking int

When Red Hat embarked on the journey of building a functionally safe Linux operating system (OS) for automotive use, it also stepped onto a path that will help the entire automotive industry shape the future of Software Defined Vehicles (SDVs). We believe container technology is an essential enabler for the success of SDVs. However, running containers in cars is not without its challenges: The automotive environment demands a stringent level of determinism on dedicated hardware. Coordination of state changes among multiple nodes is essential. Adapting to failed and degraded modes var
