We want to use YOU (SUSE's Yast Online Update) to keep our linux servers current; the automation helps a great deal. We maintain a local server and currently we sync it with SUSE servers once a week.
We have two conflicting needs : 1) We frequently get orders from our security group to apply security patches to our linux servers. The weekly sync of our YOU server keeps it very current and we apply the security patches as needed. Keeps the security folks happy. 2) We have a need to apply patches to a test server; release it for testing; then apply the same patches to a production server. In this case we need a stable YOU server until the test goes to production. The test period could take weeks or months. I was wondering how others do it. Thanks for any info.
