Upgrade SLES 11 for SAP SP3 to SLES 11 for SAP SP4

Hello

I would like upgrade SLES 11 for SAP SP3 to SLES 11 for SAP SP4 to get upgrade Hana DB SPS9  to SPS 12.

I update SLES 11 SP3 to the last patches and then the tray "gnome-packagekit" displays a message that a distribution upgrade is available.

I am using the "guide" https://www.suse.com/es-es/support/kb/doc?id=7016711  the steps from this guide are valid to "SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 for SAP Applications".

But when I follow the steps it tells me that it remove the "SUSE_SLES_SAP-SP4-migration" package and I think that is wrong.

Or really, it is right and I have to follow these steps then I will have to add the package later and I will run the script that says in note https://www.suse.com/es-es/support/kb/doc?id=7016707 and then the system will reach to SLES 11 SP4 for SAP.

Or directly I have to run the script that says in note https://www.suse.com/es-es/support/kb/doc?id=7016707 and then the system will reach to SLES 11 SP4 for SAP from SLES 11 SP3 for SAP without any previous step.

Regards

Hi Guillermo,

Let's not start with SLES 11 for SAP upgrade (sorry, I'm not good at that), currently, SLES 11 for SAP SP3 is supported to run HANA SPS 12.

2302188 - SAP HANA SPS 12 Database Revision 120

2323817 - SAP HANA SPS 12 Database Revision 121

2343165 - SAP HANA SPS 12 Database Revision 122

On SUSE Linux SAP HANA SPS 11 Database Revision 120 requires as minimum Operating System SLES 11 SP3.

Please see further information in the SAP HANA Product Availability Matrix - SAP HANA PAM.

Regards,

Ning

Hello Ning

I would like update to the last SP of my SUSE SLES version, and so I will avoid a update to SLES SP coming soon again.

The "SAP note 2343165 - SAP HANA SPS 12 Database Revision 122" are saying

Operating Systems for SAP HANA on Intel-Based Hardware Platforms
For a SAP HANA system on Intel-based hardware platforms the following operating systems are available:

And the PAM are showing the SLES 11 SP4 too.
