Having said that though, it does most of the work for you and comes very close
to giving you a running update (with the exception of the ProdDB file and the
few cases where an update changes syntax in the YaST config files). The
manual labour to make the update complete is relatively minor
But yes, an upgrade is a large enough operation that it shouldn't be
undertaken lightly on a production machine
