Freeze Break request: RHEL 6.6

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings. 

In some kind of unfortunate timing, we went into freeze this morning
and also RHEL 6.6 was released. :) So, I would like to ask for a little
freeze break. ;) 

I'd like to apply the update to all our RHEL6 machines and reboot those
that can be easily rebooted without an outage. 

Reasoning: 

* I would really very much like to update openssh on lockbox01 so we
  can use control-persist and pipelining. It should make ansible runs a
  great deal faster. 

* I would like us to be up to date in the event a serious security
  vulnerability arrives. So, we just need to apply the update instead
  of applying all of rhel6.6 also. 

* I would --exclude=python-zmq as we have had troubles with the rhel6
  version from epel. 

* We have typically had very little problem with minor release versions
  of RHEL. Breakage for us has usually happened due to epel upgrades or
  unrelated items. 

* It's the very start of our freeze, so we should be able to clean up
  any problems resulting before it disrupts the beta cycle any. 

* I don't see any issues off hand that would affect us in the tech
  notes for rhel 6.6. 

Thoughts? +1s?

As a backup plan, I can just update lockbox01 to get the new openssh.
However, I really think we should just update them all to stay current.
