Two things help tremendously:

#1: Have working backups.  If you run into a problem, roll back the
system to a working state.  If you cannot restore a working system
easily, fix your backup solution until you can rollback easily.

#2: Have a package-building box and test builds before installing
new package builds to other boxes.  Your downtime for upgrades
to the rest of your boxes become minimized.
