Re: delayed Reboots after security patch application

Karl,

I know what you mean about using clustered environments, but the
customer has these.

But in accordance with Murphy's law and Mission Critical systems, you
fail the cluster over and something happens. Because we are in a
compliant environment, any issues have to be investigated. So we tend
to not fail over the clusters, only in periods of extremely low
utilisation to minimise effects of any issues.
