Actually, we test reboot servers before patches that require reboots (i.e. new kernel). That way, if the server fails to recover from the test reboot, there are bigger problems to solve (i.e. disk failures). You don't end up wasting hours applying patches only to have the server never come back to life. -- Chad Walstrom <chewie at wookimus.net> http://www.wookimus.net/ assert(expired(knowledge)); /* core dump */
