How do you keep your Fedora up to date?
October 5, 2016 by omiday ['ɔ:mi:deı] / Updated: October 11, 2016As a sysadmin, my tool of choice has always been the command line under GNU Screen so I've never considered digging into the process until today, following a post about the dnf update X crash. Adam Williamson from Fedora QA gave a good summary in his blog post about the issue.
As it turns out, Fedora systemd maintainers decided to compile systemd with the KillUserProcess property disabled:
omiday ~ $ loginctl -p KillUserProcesses show-session KillUserProcesses=no
It means that for systems running Fedora <26 the update can be safely applied from within the desktop environment. Beyond that, we need to watch for patches to screen. From Fedora wiki page Changes/KillUserProcesses:
[...] work with upstream authors and Fedora maintainers of programs like screen and tmux to implement the ability to automatically start them in a way that survives a user session, and if the system policy does not allow that, to warn the user.
So when it's time for my next round of updates I will not be using the Ansible dnf module in my network(s), I will not be using the graphical online update tool on my workstation(s), rather I will be logging in to each machine remotely via SSH and run dnf upgrade from within a screen session.
But how? I mean, manual login into each server? FWIW there are tools that can trigger a remote update, see RedHat Satellite. I've never used it though. Until recently, at my work place we were pushing using an in-house tool that scaled well for the 300+ server farm. The log was the output of yum update, just as one would expect when sitting at the console. Having switched to Ansible (due to RHEL 7 subscription requirements) I looked for a solution and as one would expect I wasn't the only one. The problem with Ansible is that ssh -tt is in its blood so to speak so the shell module would not return any output. I ended up forcing the command from the controlling machine, just as I would run the SSH command myself:

- Note:
- I must mention that TLDP has a nice documentation about exec and I/O Redirection.
To test, I'll start the Ansible playbook and kill it in the middle of the execution, while monitoring the process list and screen sessions on the target box.
Start on the controller machine:
omiday ~/work/mha/ansible $ date ; ansible-playbook master.yml -e upgrade_type='default' -l stuff.can.local ; date

Let's look at the target machine:

But what about rebooting the system after every update [1] [2]? Or maybe just restarting services will do...?
[root@omiday ~]# dnf tracer
You should restart:
+ Some applications using:
service ModemManager restart
service NetworkManager restart
service abrtd restart
service accounts-daemon restart
service atd restart
service auditd restart
service crond restart
service dnsmasq restart
service firewalld restart
service gssproxy restart
service httpd restart
service irqbalance restart
service libvirtd restart
service lightdm restart
service mcelog restart
service smartd restart
service sshd restart
service systemd-journald restart
service systemd-logind restart
service systemd-udevd restart
service wpa_supplicant restart
+ These applications manually:
Xorg
abrt-dbus
abrt-dump-journal-xorg
alsactl
audispd
bluetoothd
cupsd
master
rpc.gssd
rsyslogd
sedispatch
systemd
x2gocleansessio
Additionally to those process above, there are:
1. 2 processes requiring reboot
