Linux Updates

Found in Server settings > Linux TAB > Run Linux Updates.

  • Run Linux Updates – will run all updates right then and there. Should probably only do after hours in case a server restart is needed.
  • Run Linux Security Updates Only – does only the security ones. This is already done automatically every day.

To see interactive feedback (verbose output) or check log files for status…use following SSH commands:

  • sudo apt-get update updates/syncs packages index from their sources.
  • sudo apt-get upgrade installs newest versions of all installed packages in Ubuntu.
  • cat /var/log/apt/history.log to see log of package updates.
