yast procedure for going from SLE-10-s390x-SP2 to SLE-10-s390x-SP3

Hello everyone, I have been away for awhile. We are currently running SLE-10-s390x-SP2 + online updates. We will like to upgrade to SP3. I like to use our local yup repository and use Yast2 to upgrade by applying the move-to-sles10-sp3 patch. I changed the following on our YUM server config

Thanks, I read through the link. The link for the yup rpm is dead. We are currently running yup-232-2.2. I signed on to the Novell Support site but could not find the new yup package. If memory serves me, the yup package was not included with the normal SLES stuff. Does anyone have a link to the

Thanks Mark, Can I install SMT11 under SLES10? I am not in a position to install sles11 at the moment. I have previously upgraded to SP1 and from SP1 to SP2 but it has been a while and I do not know the steps that I had to take. If yup will not work, what process should I use? Does Novell have

I used yup-232-2.2.noarch.rpm and made a slight change to the script to get it to pull the -Updates and -Online. It still had issues pulling the -Pool stuff and since I only needed to do that once, I just pulled -Pool manually. Here's the diff but I'm guessing it'll wrap, so basically just look

Well, I'm not Peter, but some of us can't just throw up a sles11 for use without it having the other layered prereqs (security, authentication, blah blah) on top of it. And those involve other groups that also have too much on their plates. I did send him the procedure I used to online update

Yeah, throwing up SLES11 is not easy for me. I have to get SLES10-SP3 running, migrate my SLES9x to SLES10-SP3 so I can free up some DASD to even think about SLES11. This problem is similar for me when I was going from SP1 to SP2. The problem was caused by Mirroring Credentials. Do I have to
