It should work, but I doubt this scenario is a supported upgrade path.

As in: do not skip any releases in genera, or just in this case?

I mean, i upgraded several 11.1 (dom-U) machines directly to 11.3
without any problem, while upgrading 11.2 dom-0 towards 11.3 resulted in
unbootable systems, that had to be completely re-installed....

Just so.

It is very typical to not upgrade to every version. It was always a supported scenario, to upgrade from any of the currently supported versions to any of the currently supported versions.

Now, suddenly, this SuSE tradition is dropped.

We drop features.

We drop supported lifetime.

We drop supported scenarios.

Dunno, perhaps SUSE is dropping staff and the only solution is less support. Not enough money for everything.
