Update splunk

Hello, I currently have 7.3.1 installed on my server. However 7.3.1.1 has released and I would like to update so I stop receiving messages. Is this as simple as just running the 7.3.1.1 installer on my server? Will I miss any logs that happen during the installation, or will I need to reboot the server? Also, what is the "Maintenance Version"?
