I manage the crunchtools lab and the infrastructure for this blog similar to a development data center. I have a rigorous weekly checklist, which includes applying operating system patches as they are available. Most of my infrastructure is built on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, but I run this blog on Linode which doesn’t have an image for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. They have the ability to create a custom image, but I have continued to use the CentOS build, partially to better understand the differences from a hands on perspective.
Nice article. Most people assume that Cent is a, consistent, 100% clone of RedHat. I did. I was unaware that it wasn't. Nice to know. The article also highlights the need for preparing a test machine before rolling out updates in a production environment.
