What I have found is that the rpm sles-release-9-82.nn.s390(x).rpm is
on the service pack CD but *not* part of the service applied by YOU. 
If you find that rpm on the Service Pack cd and update it, then the
output from SPident should indicate you're at SP3 (as long as you're
not missing some other update.)
