online update is what you did
offline update is when it reboots to install the updates
Considering my operating mode is to reboot once a month at best. I have
always installed updates as they came, not when I was planning on rebooting.
With all I have open, getting everything set up takes real time.

Like you had to do?
Usually the online update works fine, but occasionally it doesn't.
More common on a new release than a mature release. I use to reboot any
time I got a new kernel, but then I learned that was not really
necessary. My Centos servers may go 6 mo between reboots.
Well take care.
