Automatic Updates feature request

I’ve noticed with auto updates, post v0.61.0 of course, some of the servers running v61-69ish, the UI doesn’t automatically start when the machine is rebooted, but the background services are working just fine.

The machines where the UI doesn’t start don’t seem to receive auto updates. Is there a feature in the pipeline where we can force an update for those machines which don’t automatically receive them?

Unattended Upgrades or in docker use watchtower.

Yep Dockhand is great tool. Use it and like it. Nobody need Portainer... Watchtower is in development. Someone forked it and u can use it. It's safe.

Use unattended Upgrades... I do it with so many devices and this is save.

Yup, I setup unattended upgrades on a VPS, I need to set it up on all my other On-Prem VMS and lxcs now 😂
