So I don't use Firefox anymore but I do know back in the day if
we had
FF open when we updated it would do a double request for each page/form.
However when updating we just restarted FF and it would work fine after
that. I've never noticed any other issues than FF but like I said I
don't use it anymore.
Granted that doesn't matter obviously we don't want that kind of
behaviour.
I am curious though. Everyone says the only way to do it securely and
safely is with nothing running. Why can't updates be applied with stuff
running prior to a reboot?
1 out of a million cases needs offline updates
really - the only good at it is that you can stick
at using YUM and decide what you have to do at your
own - rarely updates really require a reboot
* lsof | grep DEL | grep /usr and restart services on servers
* logout/login and the above on workstations
