How often do you update software on your servers? - tchncs

Or asked the other way around: How long do you keep your servers running without installing any software updates? update means something like sudo dnf update or something … apt-get upgrade apt-get update

Those apt commands are in a less-good order. It’s usually better to update apt, then upgrade the system.

I upgrade as soon as reasonably possible after the notification appears, if the system isn’t on auto-upgrade.

I do sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

Is there any reason to not combine the commands since the output always prompts prior to changes anyway?

I think their point was to make sure they are done in order, i.e. update before upgrade, not the other way around as in OPs example.
