FortiClient EMS 7.4 - updating linux (unattended-upgrades)

[miciti]

We did implement FortiClient EMS in our company and since we did not have a windows server license to spare we directly went for version 7.4 because it is running on linux.

I did not find any informations on recommendations from FortiNet how to update the linux system.

Does running "unattended-upgrades" in default configuration may break something?

Very good question.

Basically performing "updates" (not OS upgrade) on the Ubuntu server shouldn't impact your FortiClient EMS. But it is always good to take precaution by taking a VM backup before updating the system, just in case.
