16.1.4.2 The Upgrade Procedure
WARNING: Check Your System Backup
Before actually starting the upgrade procedure, check that your system backup
is up-to-date and restorable. This is especially important because you must enter
many of the following steps manually.
1 Run the online update to make sure the software management stack is up-
to-date. For more information, see Chapter 6, YaST Online Update (page 99).
2 Congure the repositories you want to use as an update source. Getting this
right is essential. Either use YaST (see Section 5.4, “Managing Software
Repositories and Services” (page 90)) or zypper (see Section 9.1, “Using
Zypper (page 111)). The name of the repositories as used in the following
steps could vary a little bit depending on your customizations.
To view your current repositories enter:
zypper lr -u
TIP: zypper command names
zypper supports long and short command names. For example, you can
abbreviate zypper install as zypper in. In the following text, the short
variant is used.
2a Increase the version number of the system repositories from 11.3 to
11.4; add the new 11.4 repositories with commands such as:
server=http://download.opensuse.org
new_ver=11.4
zypper ar $server/distribution/$new_ver/repo/oss/
openSUSE-$new_ver-Oss
zypper ar $server/update/$new_ver/ openSUSE-$new_ver-Update
And remove the old repositories:
old_ver=11.3
zypper rr openSUSE-$old_ver-Oss
zypper rr openSUSE-$old_ver-Update
2b Disable third party repositories or other openSUSE Build Server
repositories, because zypper dup is guaranteed to work with the de-
