Hey Everyone,

We have a new release of Chef Infra Client filled with resource updates, platform updates, and other great new stuff. Check it out!

## Updated Resources

### dnf\_package

The `dnf_package` resource has been updated to fully support RHEL 8.

### kernel\_module

The `kernel_module` now supports a `:disable` action. Thanks [@tomdoherty](https://github.com/tomdoherty).

### rhsm\_repo

The `rhsm_repo` resource has been updated to support passing a repo name of `*` in the `:disable` action. Thanks for reporting this issue [@erinn](https://github.com/erinn).

### windows\_task

The `windows_task` resource has been updated to allow the `day` property to accept an `Integer` value.

### zypper\_package

The `zypper_package` package has been updated to properly upgrade packages if necessary based on the versin specified in the resource block. Thanks [@foobarbam](https://github.com/foobarbam) for this fix.

## Platform Support Updates

### RHEL 8 Support Added

Chef Infra Client 15.2 now includes native packages for RHEL 8 with all builds now validated on RHEL 8 hosts.

### SLES 11 EOL

Packages will no longer be built for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 11 as SLES 11 exited the 'General Support' phase on March 31, 2019. See Chef's [Platform End-of-Life Policy](https://docs.chef.io/platforms.html#platform-end-of-life-policy) for more information on when Chef ends support for an OS release.

### Ubuntu 14.04 EOL

Packages will no longer be built for Ubuntu 14.04 as Canonical ended maintenance updates on April 30, 2019. See Chef's [Platform End-of-Life Policy](https://docs.chef.io/platforms.html#platform-end-of-life-policy) for more information on when Chef ends support for an OS release.

## Ohai 15.2

Ohai has been updated to 15.2 with the following changes:

- Improved detection of Openstack including proper detection of Windows nodes running on Openstack when fetching metadata. Thanks [@jjustice6](https://github.com/jjustice6).
- A new `other_versions` field has been added to the Packages plugin when the node is using RPM. This allows you to see all installed versions of packages, not just the latest version. Thanks [@jjustice6](https://github.com/jjustice6).
- The Linux Network plugin has been improved to not mark interfaces down if `stp_state` is marked as down. Thanks [@josephmilla](https://github.com/josephmilla).
- Arch running on ARM processors is now detected as the `arm` platform. Thanks [@BackSlasher](https://github.com/BackSlasher).

## Chef InSpec 4.10.4

Chef InSpec has been updated from 4.6.4 to 4.10.4 with the following changes:

- Fix handling multiple triggers in the `windows_task` resource
- Fix exceptions when resources are used with incompatible transports
- Un-deprecate the `be_running` matcher on the `service` resource
- Add resource `sys_info.manufacturer` and `sys_info.model`
- Add `ip6tables` resource
