> In general, the comparison of versions to determine the latest follows the rules of the [Version.CompareTo Method](/dotnet/api/system.version.compareto#system_version_compareto_system_version_). This image version comparison is done by comparing the values as a [Version](/dotnet/api/system.version.-ctor) object, not as a string.

For RHEL 6.x images, the image types are shown in the following table.

|Publisher | Offer | SKU value | Version | Details
|----------|-------|-----------|---------|--------
|RedHat | RHEL | Minor version, for example, 6.9 | Concatenated values of the RHEL minor version and the date published, for example, 6.9.2018010506 | All standard RHEL 6.x images follow this convention.
|RedHat | rhel-byos | rhel-raw69 | Concatenated values of the RHEL minor version and the date published, for example, 6.9.20181023 | This image is a RHEL 6.9 BYOS image.
|RedHat | RHEL | RHEL-SAP-APPS | Concatenated values of the RHEL minor version and the date published, for example, 6.8.2017053118 | This image is a RHEL 6.8 for SAP Applications image. It's entitled to access SAP Applications repositories and base RHEL repositories.
|RedHat | RHEL | RHEL-SAP-HANA | Concatenated values of the RHEL minor version and the date published, for example, 6.7.2017053121 | This image is a RHEL 6.7 for SAP HANA image. It's entitled to access SAP HANA repositories and base RHEL repositories.

> [!NOTE]
> Unless otherwise indicated, all images are LVM partitioned and connect to regular RHEL repositories. That is, the repositories aren't Extended Update Support (EUS) and aren't Update Services for SAP (E4S). Going forward, we're moving to publishing only LVM-partitioned images but are open to feedback on this decision. For more information on Extended Update Support and Update Services for SAP, see [Red Hat Enterprise Linux Life Cycle](https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata).
For RHEL 7.x images, there are a few different image types. The following table shows the different sets of images we offer. To see a full list, use the Azure CLI command `az vm image list --publisher redhat --all`.

|Publisher | Offer | SKU value | Version | Details
|----------|-------|------------|---------|--------
|RedHat | RHEL | Minor version. for example, 7.6 | Concatenated values of the RHEL minor version and the date published, for example, 7.6.2019102813 | Images published before April 2019 are attached to standard RHEL repositories. Images published after April 2019 are attached to Red Hat's EUS repositories to allow version-locking of a specific minor version. Customers who want regular repositories should use the images that contain 7-LVM or 7-RAW in the SKU value. RHEL 7.7 and later images are LVM partitioned. All other images in this category are raw partitioned.
