Best practice for JBoss EAP updates and patches
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
