    Hey guys,

    I was just wondering how many of you are running the automatic updates of CPanel, Cpanel Packages and Security Packages?
    I have all three, except BSD ports on automatic updates. But since there are always some (small) problems after an update (the previous one broke something with disk usage stats, the last one prevented stunnel restarted so SSL cert changes are not deployed) I'm thinking of doing everything manually. I'm running RELEASE.

    Any experiences with either automatic or manual updates? Tips?

    I will set manual upgrade for the Cpanel packages as I have encountered before that the automatic update breaks some the Cpanel previously.

    I have cPanel Packages Updates and Security Package Updates set to automatic and cPanel/WHM Updates set to manual.

    Perhaps a broader range of poll choices would be better - I can't choose 'Manual' nor 'Automatic' as I use a bit of both.

    Yeah, I was thinking about it. But since there are 3 packages that can be auto or manual, it would be a LOT of choices (3^2 = 9 poll options). I just wanted to get a simple "auto or manual" overall discussion.
    I actually set the same options as you now, having only the security updates automaticly.
