I have resisted this time...
It is almost the Holidays and out centos 4 boxes have been online for like 2 years or whatever
Has anyone boldly taken the plunge on any high use and/or Internet facing Centos$ servers and done a
yum update
or a
yum -y update
without any problems at all?

I just had one box panic during the udev update. *sigh*
EIP was in sysfs_readdir while udevstart was running.

The only problem I had was the amount of disk space that was required meant that the install phase failed. So "yum update" would download all the rpm's but then fail. Once I worked around that (moved the cache'd rpms to another disk and symlink'd) then "yum update" worked perfectly.

My centos 4.5 box x86_64 went yesterday into 4.6 but it has software RAID1 (2 IDE HDD - /dev/hda and /dev/hdc), after restart to new kernel to have an effect - system didn't boot up ...
After some hours later, i went to the server i saw on the monitor screen only this: GRUB (egh - remote administration)
So i staretd system form second RAID1 disk (/dev/hdc - some tweaks in BIOS) and system boots up as normal, then i installed again GRUB on these first HDD (/dev/hda) - fixed MBR and system boot up on first hdd as normal.
So far - i have these strange problems, but by now everything seems to be OK. I don't know, what causes this - some nasty BUG in kernel installation (another i386 machines with software RAID1 went OK)

Up to 15 production servers within 24 hours, no issues so far. Other will follow shortly. DH
I use apache, mysql and php from centosplus. Anyone updating similar to 4.6?

I have upgraded several servers (4 so far, 2 more in progress now) that use the webstack from centosplus ... I had no problems on any of them.
As always ... YMMV

Just took the plunge on a couple dozen boxes without incident so far. They are all "LAMP" machines so you should be OK too.
Best,
