Ideally, any practice should be done on a test environment, as some configuration changes can have wide-spread impact on your organisation if done incorrectly. As with any changes to a production environment, you should be sure to follow your organisation's change control processes as appropriate.

Note that this can vary largely from organisation to organisation, because most of them, and especially the larger ones, will have this in place and often you can only get non-emergency changes approved once a week, at least in my experience.
