You have to weigh what each environment needs in terms of confidentiality, availability, and integrity (or whatever 3 or 4 letter acronym your site uses) then answer if it is a good idea or not. If you need high availability, then you are going to set things up where testing is done first then roll out of updates is done. If you need high confidentiality, you may push out security updates more and if you need high integrity, well you probably make the waterfall model look simple in what you have to do to make sure anything changes anywhere. > Regards, > Simon > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS at centos.org > https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos > -- Stephen J Smoogen.
