Are there any issues with a RHEL7 auditd collecting events from

To my knowlege, there are no issues. Its pretty much the same software on both
systems.
How about any interpretation issues, on the RHEL7 side, of these
events?
Just the usual user name/group interpretation issue. But if you spot anything
else, let me know. With the ausearch-test application, I have been working to
make interpretation and searching universally correct. This is only achieved
with the latest audit packages.
As an aside, I have found that we also need an audit validation suite. What
this would do is have someone start a system, login, logout, log back in, shut
down the system, reboot and run the test to see if all necessary events have
been generated, no duplicates, no spurious events, and fields are correct.
