Lesson 1: Patching

Steps before Patching


Patching Steps

1- Show the server owner the package that will be installed.


2- Request downtime from the server owner.
3- If the server is a virtual machine, create a snapshot. If it is a physical
server, try to remove the hard disk manually.
4- Check if the cluster has a fence, and put it on standby if it does.
5- Make sure that the server has an NFS file system.
BEFORE PATCHING :

#mkdir /root/patch_$(date +"%Y%m%d")

#df -Th > /root/patch_$(date +"%Y%m%d")/df_output

#cat /etc/fstab > /root/patch_$(date +"%Y%m%d")/fstab_output

#lsblk -p > /root/patch_$(date +"%Y%m%d")/lsblk_output

#uname -a > /root/patch_$(date +"%Y%m%d")/uname_output

#cat /etc/redhat-release > /root/patch_$(date +"%Y%m%d")/redhat_output

#cat /etc/exports

#uptime -p

#who

#yum update

#init 6

After PATCHING :

#uptime -p

#mount -a
