In your shoes, I would update to 11.4 (I just did that a couple weeks ago for one my small fileservers).
How should I go about the installation? Will 11.3 upgrade to 11.4 nicely? What about 12.1?
I haven't had any significant issues updating in the 11.x/12.x time series. It isn't like the old days when upgrading was dicey. Just be aware of major package version bumps, that is always the biggest issue. Things like PosgreSQL where after you upgrade don't work until you do a proper restore. <http://www.whitemiceconsulting.com/>

The same is trivially possible from 11.3 and onwards.
Step 5) is out of date zypper dup --download "in-advance" That has been default since zypper as included in os 11.4. Separately you are missing zypper in zypper. That used to be recommended as the first step after zypper refresh. Maybe it is not needed anymore?
