This is one area of change management that is really backwards. because my hosting company is responsible for updating the OS on my server I don’t get a notification. so, i want to make sand/quality/prod the same so the patches are installed on prod first. but i am still going to follow the BPs and document the change. at least I don’t have to go in front of the Change committee anymore and have them pick it apart. Change Management in the corporate world can be such a pain….
so, here’s the proc:
yum update
confirm the new files
rpm -q centos-release
that last command must be run on sand and prod to ensure that the level is consistent.
