Ignore Kernel Upgrades on a server (lemmy.ml)

I am using Archlinux as a server for my infrastructure. Does anyone have experience with ignoring kernel upgrades on Archlinux for a while? If so, how do you decide on what kernel release you are staying? If you upgrade the kernel, have you found a way to circumvent having to restart the machine?

IMHO a server would benefit from all updates... but as with all updates a pre-update backup is always wise.

Do you have specific issues to deal with?
