Data sent to Canonical serversΒΆ
Livepatch on-prem deployments periodically send requests to servers hosted by Canonical to check for the availability of new live kernel patches. These requests include the following information:
Unique ID of the deployment
Number of machines served by the deployment
Additional machine-level reporting can be enabled by setting the patch-sync.send-machine-reports configuration option. For example, using Juju:
juju config livepatch patch-sync.send-machine-reports=true
Enabling this setting allows Livepatch on-prem to send reports about the exact state of each machine served by the deployment.
