Hello c/sysadmin, and welcome to the Patch Megathread! I'm editing this post and leaving it up as a single catch-all sticky post for patch days for the time being, since we're not seeing enough activity to warrant new threads IMO. If someone wants to help moderate / curate content and actively create new patch day posts, please let me know and I'll add you to the mod team.
This is the place to talk about the latest patches, updates, and releases. We put this thread into place to help gather all the information about this month's updates: What is fixed, what broke, what got released and should have been caught in QA, etc. We do this both to keep clutter out of the community, and provide a singular resource to read.
While this thread is timed to coincide with Microsoft's Patch Tuesday, feel free to discuss any patches, updates, and releases, regardless of the company or product.
Remember the rules of safe patching:
- Deploy to a test/dev environment before prod.
- Deploy to a pilot/test group before the whole org.
- Have a plan to roll back if something doesn't work.
- Test, test, and test!
RHEL> AD:
I haven't had time for root cause analysis, but a recent patch cycle (last few months of patches) in our environment broke RHEL7/8 AD integration with via SSSD.
Did anyone run into this? I'll post the fix when I get home should any other admins run into this gem.
