I am considering doing an upgrade of my 11.1 system to an 11.2 system with zypper dup. I have these questions:
Hello
Have you read this first ?
Thanks Michael. Yes, I had already read that. Aside from it saying: "Valid for upgrading 10.3 to 11.0 & 11.0 to 11.1" in big text at the top, it does not answer my three questions. What exactly is a 'from 11.1'? Only one that has been installed and kept up-to-date with 11.1 repositories? What if your 11.1 has the odd Factory repository? Could this be an issue? I know it depends on which Factory repos. But some clarification of what the 11.1 is assumed to be could help. In the example, the 'zypper dup' step gets and installs whatever is needed. I have heard that there is a flag to make the download of all complete before anything is installed. That way you do not have a partially updated system without the ability to get some packages - for whatever reason. No answer to that on this page. It is possible in this context? Finally, there was no mention of a 'dry run'. With any relatively new technology, a 'dry run' is not a bad thing. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.
