Agreed.

Please let us know if we can help.

I have a standard outage window this weekend to apply the update.

If we don't make that I have to arrange for an emergency change and a plant wide shutdown to update the dozen or so plant floor systems.

Yes the OS update does not usually require a reboot, but the application that run on those OS's do. So we have to shutdown the whole plant. Major headache for me.

Thanks,
