9.2.3 Updating to a Service Pack
There are two preferred ways to update the system to the Service Pack (SP) feature
level. One way is to boot from the SP medium. The alternative is to run YaST Online
Update or zen-updater and select the Update to Service Pack X patch. By updating to
the new feature level, additional features like new drivers or software enhancements
are available to your system.
WARNING: Do not miss the Update to Service Pack patch
If you do not select the Update to Service Pack patch, your system will stay at
the previous feature level and you will get bug fixes and security updates for
a limited time only (for SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP2 this period is now extended
to six months). Thus for ongoing system integrity it is recommended to switch
to the new feature level as early as possible.
Other update ways are running rug commands manually, using the Patch CD (see
Section 8.3.7, "Updating from a Patch CD"
stalled SMT system.
Booting from the SP Medium for the Update
