patch management on production servers

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

 



I am curious about how other approach patch management on production
server(s).
With HPUX we can bundle patches, test, then roll out -- we don't just apply
patches as they come out.

We can keep a static bundle and not having to worry about it changing.  SDUX
handles super cession, dependencies etc within the bundle.  However, there
doesn't seem to be a mechanism like this for redhat.  I cant seem to find a
way to bundle patches (taking into account dependencies, super cession,
etc).

Has anyone developed a methodology for patch management in a production
environment.
Running up2date on the system regularly is not an option for us.
