I think it's better to keep one of these under the original name, and
make the second one a symlink to it.  That way, the whole system won't
break when the packages are updated.  Other than that little detail,
your suggested procedure seems sound ... in a pre-systemd world.  I am
not familiar with systemd enough to know what, if anything, should be
done differently there (I don't know whether RHEL 7.2 is systemd or
not).
