Hello everyone.
There is a dedicated server from Gt Host with CentOS 7.0. - 270 days of uptime. Full update was also 270 days ago, then I've only selectively updated some services.
I want to roll up some updates, but I'm worried that the server will drop and I'll lose access to it. Most of all I'm frightened by libc, NetworkManager and systemd updates. What can be done in advance so that the network, SSH and init won't fall of? Or do not bother at all and just selectively update and install security updates?
P.S. Yes, on a good note I need at least 2 distributed servers, virtualization and everything, of course. But it's not worth it: little time, little money and too much difficulties. But if the downtime won't last more than 15 minutes, then it's okay for me.
