        Hi Everyone,
         
        After taking
            over the LDAP service from a colleague, I updated the 389 DS
            service to the latest release by issuing a “yum update …”. 
            Then when searching around the 389-ds documentation, I came
            across the install page that said that I must use “yum
            upgrade …” and not update. 
            
         
        My question is
            what’s the difference between yum update and upgrade?
      
    
    I think they are the same.  If someone knows any difference between
    "yum update" and "yum upgrade" I'd like to hear it.

    
        Is it OK if I
            leave it like that or should I do the yum upgrade?
      
    
    It is OK to leave it like that.

    
        The service
            seems to be running OK after “yum update”, so far.
         
        I went from
            1.2.11.15-14.el6_4 --> 1.2.11.29-1.el6
         
        Thanks,
        Trev
