I am using unattended-upgrades across multiple servers. I would like updates to be rolled out gradually, either randomly or to a subset of test/staging machines first. Is there a way to do that?

An obvious option is to set some machines to update on Monday and the others to update on Wednesday, but that only gives me only weekly updates…

The goal of course is to avoid a Crowdstrike-like situation on my Ubuntu machines.

    You have to reboot for an image update. Hence, you can update the computers at different times and days.

      This doesn’t seem to enhance my workflow at all. Seems I now would have to reboot, and I still need to find a separate tool to coordinate/stagger updates, like I do now. Or did I miss something?
