We are planning to implement a 3rd party clustering software(VERITAS). This supports rhel 6.5 and 5.6 also. However our home made application good supported rhel 6.5 and 5.6. We want to know what is the end of support life of rhel 6.5 and 5.6. I am unable to understand when I see the attached snap while google.

Further down on that same page you will see that even the optional (extra cost) Extended Update Support for those point releases has already ended.

5.6 (ends July 31, 2013)
6.5 (ends November 30, 2015)

If you keep RHEL 5 and RHEL 6 fully updated, regular support continues until Mar 31, 2017 and November 30, 2020, respectively.
