Best practice for managing Containers (keep them updated)

[SimonB]

Hi there,


I have several ubuntu and debian containers running on proxmox. Is there a best practice on how to keep them up to date? So, some kind of „central management“ instead of logging into the console on every container and do apt-get update / upgrade for each one?


How do you manage your CTs?

We have a lot of containers and KVM's running. The are all working with autoupdate and autoreboot. When anything goes wrong we get some mails from the server. https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/automatic-updates.html

Hey Simon,

Did you consider a configuration management tool like ansible for this?
