• Hi, Pleskians! We are running a UX testing of our upcoming product intended for server management and monitoring.
    We would like to invite you to have a call with us and have some fun checking our prototype. The agenda is pretty simple - we bring new design and some scenarios that you need to walk through and succeed. We will be watching and taking insights for further development of the design.
    If you would like to participate, please use this link to book a meeting. We will sent the link to the clickable prototype at the meeting.
  • (Plesk for Windows):
    MySQL Connector/ODBC 3.51, 5.1, and 5.3 are no longer shipped with Plesk because they have reached end of life. MariaDB Connector/ODBC 64-bit 3.2.4 is now used instead.
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.

Question How does Plesk handle OS updates?

Hi
This is a general question - I am trying to deepen my understanding. The question does not relate to a specific bug.

I understand that Plesk (if enabled) uses Yum to get system updates. This system may also update third-party components e.g. Apache or PHP. However; it seems it does not update the OS kernel. Plesk components are installed/updated separately through the installer.

So as I understand it the OS updates might be "software enhancements". Perhaps? Looking through a list on the RedHat site an example of an enhancement might be how SSL Certificates are managed. But; if the underlying OS changes, how does Plesk keep up to date with that e.g. take advantage of new OS enhancements and/or not break if something changes?

Thanks -
