Upgrading CoreOS

By default, Deis disables CoreOS automatic updates. This is partially because of problems we've seen

with etcd/fleet version incompatibilities as hosts in the cluster are upgraded one-by-one.

By default, Deis disables CoreOS automatic updates. This is partially because in the case of a
182+
machine reboot, Deis components will be scheduled to a new host and will need a few minutes to start
183+
and restore to a running state. This results in a short downtime of the Deis control plane,
184+
which can be disruptive if unplanned.

Additionally, because Deis customizes the CoreOS cloud-config file, upgrading the CoreOS host to
184187
a new version without accounting for changes in the cloud-config file could cause Deis to stop

functioning properly.
