You'll also want to ensure you retain the modules in /lib/modules for the previous version of the kernel. Again, this is handled when installing a new RPM, but I'm not sure how the SP does it.
Just like the kernel. When you 'rpm -U' for the kernel, these days the old modules are gone. In my previous life we had the kernel in NSS. The kernel modules for all in-use kernels were on a common R/O disk. Early in the boot process we --bind mounted the matching set of kernel modules into the root file system. So we could do kernel updates (and backout) just by making the virtual machine IPL from another NSS. But as said, quite often you have other updates as well.
