Best practice for JBoss EAP updates and patches

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Best practice or structure for applying patches
  • Should we apply every patch available?
  • Do we have to apply all available patches?
  • Application of multiple one-off patches are overwriting files from each other
  • Should I apply available patches or upgrade to latest minor version? For example, wait for 6.3.x or update to EAP 6.4.x.
  • Are any bundle or cumulative patches released in each year?
  • Difference between Patches and Security Advisories

Environment

  • Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 4, 5, 6, 7
