Just note that will not get any maintenance for SUSE Linux - only for SLES...
So there will be _no_ updates ? :-)
That's not wait I said.
With SUSE Linux you get for 2 years security updates. and fixes for critical problems.
Well, and current SLES for 5 year. This is only difference :-)
btw, I'm SLES cutsomer and it is not clear for me what is maintenance and what is support.
I hope this is documented properly on our web pages.
Shure. http://www.suse.com/us/business/services/maintenance/index.html Maintenance include _only_ installation support.
If I point that I have problems support usually reply (this is, certanly, only first reaction) - this is support, not maintenance.
But nobody replies if you have problems with SUSE Linux,
The same can be with SLES with no support. So if one buy SLES without support, but with maintanance only reason is certification of SLES for some software (f.e. oracle). Btw, currently Novell calls this upgrade protection (i.e. access to pathes and newer versions, nothing more), not maintenance. Just to make things clear :-)
