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

Every couple of days. I don’t auto-update, but I’ve streamlined the process to the point that I can just open a single web page and see the number of pending updates for every system on my network, docker containers included, each one with a button. Clicking the button applies the update and reboots if necessary. So it takes about 15 seconds of effort to update everything, which is why I don’t mind doing it so often.
