So I just want some confirmation on this. I am looking at automating updates for the new cpanel VM we rebuilt but if what I am reading is correct WHM updates the host and cpanel automatically? If that is true then all that needs to be done is a simple reboot every so often?

By default, unless the /etc/cpupdate.conf file has been manually adjusted, cPanel does update the system packages on the server as well as part of the nightly update.

Does WHM update cPanel ? They are the same thing, so yes

Does it update the Host OS? Yes

If that is true then all that needs to be done is a simple reboot every so often?


False, and this is the problem with today's "system admins". Relying on a control panel to do things like this is just amateur hour , and it's asking for trouble. There is way more to do on your server, from an administrative standpoint.
