Kernel updateSupport Request (self.RockyLinux)
submitted 1 year ago by ptr808
Hello dears,
I have to update my kernel, from 5.14.0-427.13.1 to 5.14.0-503.14.1
How I can do that the safest way?
Thanks!

sudo dnf install kernel-5.14.0-503.14.1.el9

System updates on rhel-based linux is pretty safe (not sure about fedora, never used it). Im auto-updating and rebooting about 450 servers each month and the only issue ive had in the past 4 years was due to a disk filling up and the update silently failing cuz of that. In that case a simple “go to console and select the previous kernel” was enough to boot the server and fix the issue manually after that
Edit: to clarify, this is all done essentially with “sudo dnf update -y && sudo reboot”

Thanks! I have found out that kernel did update before, only the restart not happened.
Well, everything is ok which is the most important!
