We decided to continue running the maintenance window on every Sunday at 10 PM, as it fits our schedule and ensures that any family or friend users are not impacted by potential downtime during the week. This time slot has proven to be reliable for both updates and backups without causing any inconvenience.
Discussion revolved around the recent updates to the server software and the need to apply these to ensure security and performance. The team agreed that automating this process as much as possible will save time and reduce errors, but we still need to manually check for critical updates that may require additional configuration.
How to efficiently manage the automated updates without interrupting user access?
Should we consider adding more automated tests to catch potential issues before they become major problems?
How can we better communicate with family and friends about scheduled maintenance, especially if it causes brief disruptions?
