Best Practices for Hot fixes

Hi,

When applying Hot Fixes, do organizations typically apply to test servers before applying to their production environment, or just go for it?

Thanks in advance for answering my informal survey!

  • Do Live to Test first. Apply hotfix to Test system first and always. Plans sufficient time for staff to verify the hotfix in Test. We give a minimum of one week. Then schedule the update to Live, and plan a Live to Test directly following.
