The main tasks as a release manager are :
- Keep an eye on the automation for [CC7](https://gitlab.cern.ch/linuxsupport/cronjobs/centos7_release), [CS8](https://gitlab.cern.ch/linuxsupport/cronjobs/stream8_snapshots) and [CS9](https://gitlab.cern.ch/linuxsupport/cronjobs/stream9_snapshots). Every day, several emails will be sent to `lxsoft-admins` notifying you of the progress, and the full logs can also be seen in [Kibana](https://es-linux.cern.ch/?security_tenant=internal).
- Should the automation fail or stop for any reason (new packages that need to be rebuilt, etc.), your job is to make sure the situation is corrected and the automation can continue (either that day or the next).
- Should the automation fail or stop for any reason (new packages that need to be rebuilt, etc.), your job is to make sure the situation is corrected and the automation can continue (either that day, by rerunning the cronjob, or the next).
- For CC7, production updates should happen on Thursday morning, and for CS8 and CS9 they should happen on Wednesday morning. Manually, these updates may be stopped or done earlier depending on issues in the upstream packages or urgent security fixes.
- Stay up-to-date with the latest Red Hat and CentOS updates. Notifications for particularly interesting packages [will be sent](https://gitlab.cern.ch/linuxsupport/cronjobs/centos_rss) to the Mattermost channel [~lxsoft-alerts](https://mattermost.web.cern.ch/it-dep/channels/lxsoft-alerts), but from time to time there will be other interesting updates that are not [on the list](https://gitlab.cern.ch/linuxsupport/cronjobs/centos_rss/-/blob/master/centos_rss/prod.packages.yml).
- This also includes keeping track of new Red Hat point releases and [publishing them](/support/redhat.md).
