When I was searching if using Rocky Linux was a good alternative for me, i found, that the equivalent to unattended upgrades in RHEL doesn't support automatic reboots for Kernel updates.
A feature request has been open for years at this point.
It seems to be intentionally made to push people towards live patching.
- Spivak 4y agoI mean it’s not an out of the box feature but you can just drop an override file for the dnf-automatic.service with an ExecStartPost=/usr/bin/systemctl reboot and call it a day.
- xorcist 4y agoThat would reboot after every update, no matter how trivial, not just for kernel and libc upgrades. There is a "dnf needs-restarting -r". In my experience it's not completely reliable though.
