How do you safely update your production systems that are long term support? (discuss.online)

For me, I'll be waiting for at least a point release in Ubuntu before I ever consider migrating any machines. Then I'll check against the forums and any security announcements.

The ideal is to have a disaster recovery that is 100%. When I worked at cars I really liked how they did it. Staging was a mirror of production capacity wise. You basically decide on what the update will be. Your freeze all development going to stage and test the updated version of the system. Then you move the network pointers to go to stage as production and the old production is now stage. You give it some time to verify everything is good with the new production and then you eventually allow dev to flow to the new staging.

Nice flow example!
