# Live Updates Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
This document describes the live updates architecture for `apt-ostree`, covering how the system handles live updates, user overlays, and runtime modifications without requiring system reboots. The design enables dynamic system updates while maintaining system stability and consistency.
|
||||
|
||||
## Live Update Commands
|
||||
|
||||
### Core Live Update Commands
|
||||
|
||||
#### `apt-ostree apply-live`
|
||||
Applies live updates to the running system.
|
||||
|
||||
**Purpose:**
|
||||
- Apply package updates without reboot
|
||||
- Update system configuration
|
||||
- Modify running services
|
||||
- Apply security patches
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation Details:**
|
||||
- Package installation in user space
|
||||
- Service restart and reload
|
||||
- Configuration file updates
|
||||
- Runtime state management
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Apply live updates
|
||||
apt-ostree apply-live
|
||||
|
||||
# Apply specific package updates
|
||||
apt-ostree apply-live --packages=nginx,postgresql
|
||||
|
||||
# Apply with service restart
|
||||
apt-ostree apply-live --restart-services
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Options:**
|
||||
- `--packages`: Specific packages to update
|
||||
- `--restart-services`: Restart affected services
|
||||
- `--dry-run`: Show what would be updated
|

|
||||
|
||||
#### `apt-ostree usroverlay`
|
||||
Manages user overlays for live modifications.
|
||||
|
||||
**Purpose:**
|
||||
- Create temporary file overlays
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
# Add file to overlay
|
||||
