I'll grant that; we usually do that sort of thing overnight, and preferably
initiated after the day shift leaves on Friday. We also don't push
"routine" patches, just the once-a-month "cumulatives", after checking to
see what may be affected, and alerting my unit (User Response) about the
push and what may break. It's only the high-level security patches that run
the coprohurricane risk.
