  • auter

    Automatic updates for RHEL, Debian, and their derivatives, with the ability to run pre/post hooks & reboot afterwards.

  • How about auter? Auter link It's a github project built by people I work with, and it has some very nice configuration options available. We've configured environments that autoreboot for kernel updates but not everything else, options for not patching a group of systems if a different group failed for some reason (to keep from taking down all redundant systems in a patching run), unlimited automation options and scripting. In the dept I'm with now, we use a commercial product but we're really leaning into moving to Ansible. This is because it's easier to manage multiple envs with playbooks, than it would be to write all the customization into scripts for auter (and we're not allowed to completely automate the patching process in the new dept).
