    I updated OS of my servers in System->OS Update. It said that it was programmed to update.
    One day later, when I go to monitor, my servers stills blue with a warning, that says they still unupdated.
    What can be happening?
    Thanks a lot

    In the monitor section click on "more information" for the server(s) in question and see what ISPConfig says there.

    WARNING:
    One or more components need to be upgraded

    And if I click on "More...":

    Inst linux-image-5.10.0-21-amd64 (5.10.162-1 Debian-Security:11/stable-security [amd64])

    These updates are most likely kept back by apt, run:

    apt update
    apt upgrade

    on the command line to check this.

    Yes, this have updated/upgraded one of the servers, in which I tried. But, cannot it be done by the panel, without start an ssh session on each server?
    Thanks a lot.

    ISPConfig does not manage the server itself. So yes you have to ssh into the machines and update them. Or actiavte unattended upgrades, or update the servers with a playbook or one of the many other ways to do this

    I make apt update && apt upgrade on all my servers, and they still in blue showing 1 warning, which still being the same:

    Inst libssl1.1 [1.1.1n-0+deb11u3] (1.1.1n-0+deb11u4 Debian-Security:11/stable-security [amd64])
    Conf libssl1.1 (1.1.1n-0+deb11u4 Debian-Security:11/stable-security [amd64])
    Inst openssl [1.1.1n-0+deb11u3] (1.1.1n-0+deb11u4 Debian-Security:11/stable-security [amd64])
    Conf openssl (1.1.1n-0+deb11u4 Debian-Security:11/stable-security [amd64])

    Thanks!

    This is checked once or twice a day, so you might have to wait until the changes in ISPConfig.

    Correct, now all of them are green!
    I still not understanding something: What does exaclty do (or schedule to do) the update OS option of ISPConfig? Cause I still have to user apt update & upgrade.
    Thanks!

    It runs:

    apt-get update
    apt-get upgrade -y

    commands for you. But there can be updates that you can't install like this as they are kept back by apt as installing them can potentially break your system or may require additional configuration, and these updates must be installed by hand.

    If you want those updates done automatically, my signature has link to tutorial on Unattended Upgrades.
