Hi list, I know that there are automatic update with yum-cron but never tried. In my experiences I never did automatic backup because if update was broken my installation will be broken and I wait some time before apply update. Today seems to be that automatic update are used more than before. What do you think about automatic update? It is a good practice on a server? What is your experiences? Thanks in advance. Alessandro
For me, yum-cron only downloads the updates and e-mails me to let me know they are ready. It does not actually apply them.
To apply them, I ssh in and run the command "yum update" and they install fast w/o me needing to wait for the download.
That lets me test everything that is critical and make sure it works after the update.
