"This is a simple cache. That means it doesn't consider the files as a =

The problem is, my updates don=E2=80=99t work that way.

These servers all belong to different customers (well, some have a =
couple) and I can=E2=80=99t patch them in =E2=80=9Esome short period of =

It=E2=80=99s continuous process.
I have other stuff to do. And I have to negotiate downtimes etc.
