omv-regen 7.0.17 will detect if a system reboot is necessary after applying updates by performing a backup. If necessary, the server will be restarted. https://github.com/xhente/omv-…3cab409f3fe41ce33de1cca21

You can use this to configure automatic updates on the server. Select the option to update the system in omv-regen backup. Schedule a scheduled task in the OMV GUI that runs the omv-regen backup command. The system will be automatically updated and the configurations required by Salt will be applied before the backup is performed. Once the backup is finished, the system will automatically reboot if necessary.

If you detect that there has been a problem during a system update you can always check the omv-regen log in /var/log/omv-regen.log to see what happened.
