[SLUG] yum updating apache ?

["Voytek" <lists@xxxxxxxxxx>]

a dumb question:

I notice there are some RH updates to apache, these can be 'yum update'ed'
from RH/fedora updates server;

so, yum tells me:

I will do the following:
[update: apache.i386]
Getting apache-1.3.27-8.legacy
apache 100 % done
Updated:  apache.i386 gzip.i386
Transaction(s) Complete

but, how does this work, apache is a running process/server, doesn't
someone need to take it down and restart after the update ?

does yum takes care of that...?
do I need to restart it ?
