Hi All,

We have a server (on VMware, so x86) that is still running on SLES10 SP2. I'm 
looking for an upgrade path. The official statement is that in order to go to 
newer releases we first must upgrade to SLES10 SP3, next to SLES10 SP4, next to 
SLES11 SP4 and then we can move into SLES12 SP5 or SLES15. Obviously all 
upgrades must be done using an offline upgrade, so boot from the installation 
media to perform an upgrade.

However, the SLES10 DVD's are no longer available. Novell doesn't provide any 
SLES anymore and Suse only has SLES starting SLES11 SP4. I managed to obtain a 
copy of SLES10 SP4 but I don't have SLES10 SP3.

Would it be possible to perform an upgrade from SLES10 SP2 directly into SLES10 
SP4? The official statement is that they didn't test a direct upgrade from SP2 
to SP4 but that leaves the question if it's actually impossible or just not 
advised. Similarly, we do have a few SLES10 SP2 on s390 but I only have the 
SLES10 SP2 DVD for s390 and no SP4 for s390. So I can't test it myself in s390.
