Redhat build level 1

[MorganGreylock]

We currently are running RHEL AS version 3.1, and I am slated to update that to AS version 3.8. I'm very familiar with installing and upgrading packages, but I'm curious if there is some 'official 3.8' build that they are talking about. What exactly determines what the build level is?

They are not interested in reinstalling by any means, this is to be done as an update. Any information anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated.

The release level seems to be defined by the redhat-release package, which contains the /etc/redhat-release file. If you use RHN for the system, just up2dateing it to the current packages should update this package as well.
