The intention is just the opposite. It upgrades your apps and software to the latest available for your release, it does NOT upgrade your system to the next release of Ubuntu Server.

I don't deploy servers in any professional environment but I imagine some folks need to be super safe and take the 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' approach once the servers are up and only go for security updates until the next LTS release. This way (theoretically) everything will stay as is, but there is no avoiding human intervention and from that point human error is always possible!

i does not need deb-scr here, so i've removed them. The missing on your side are about sound mainly, but also microcode etc.

Thanks for your reply, I have pasted above lines in the source.list file. But

did not worked.
While running command i found that when i was using tab key for auto complete , apt-get word was not coming in the Bash terminal, as i have checked in other Ubuntu OS it was autocompleting. That means i have to reinstall apt package in the server, hope i am right?

While running apt-get command i found that bash is not auto completing command, but in other same version of OS i have check it is working there. Does it means that apt Package is corrupted ?

Thanks for you reply, But i think apt package is corrupted, while running command on terminal, command is not auto completing, that means that apt packaged is corrupted.
