Oracle 10.2 and 11.2 on Sles10
I have been searching for an Oracle matrix that shows Oracle Database and the Suse Linux kernel versions it supports. I was told that there is no common Sles10 kernel level that supports Oracle 10.2 and 11.2. I thought Sles10 SP3 would support both. Appreciate any information.

Is it possible to upgrade from SLES10 SP4 to SLES11 SP1?
Hello listers, Due to other work late last year, we were unable to migrate from SLES10 SP3 to SLES11, so we migrated to SLES10 SP4 instead. Now is the time to start looking at migrating the systems to SLES11 SP1. However, when I go out to the Novell website and look for the How to upgrade to SLES11 SP1, I do not see SLES10 SP4 as a supported migration path. Anyone know if you can migrate from SLES10 SP4 to SLES11 SP1?

Re: Is it possible to upgrade from SLES10 SP4 to SLES11 SP1?
Have a lot of folks done 10 - 11 upgrades? We've thus far have built only replacement servers. The upgrade path might be a good option for some folks... or maybe not.. Can anyone share their experiences with it?

MEMO: Moving Over, Not On
All, I'm writing to inform everyone that effective today, I have transferred from Novell Technical Services to the SUSE SLE Core team. (No more on call duty! Yay!) Part of my charter is to help determine what our customers want and need in the way of improvements and new features, and use that try to influence our Product Management team for SLE. I have my own list of things in mind, but I would appreciate any thoughts on that subject from this audience. I'll be at SHARE in Atlanta, and hope I get into some conversations about this while I'm there as well. Another part of my charter is to document features, write white papers, etc., for our customers in collaboration with the developers that created them. (Amazingly enough, most developers don't want to take the time to write about what they're doing. :) If there's any specific area of the documentation you think needs cleaning up, or clarification, please let me know about that and I'll see what I can do.

Re: Is it possible to upgrade from SLES10 SP4 to SLES11 SP1?
We have upgraded about 10 SLES10 SP3 guests to SLES11 SP1. Most have went seamless. We found that an older release of cognos wouldn't run under SLES11 and that Omegamon required a TEPS/TEMS reconfiguration and an /etc/hosts change. Oracle 10G didn't have any issues.

Re: Is it possible to upgrade from SLES10 SP4 to SLES11 SP1?
Hello, I was going through the process of performing the upgrade on another system with my cohort. We were going to gather all the evidence to open a service request. The upgrade got past the point where it was not finding a product to be upgraded. My cohort said he did not apply all the latest SP4 maintenance. When I went through it with him, we did all the maintenance. The upgrade did not complete successfully, but got further.
