Table 5-1 outlines the supported paths for upgrading to OES 2 SP3.
All other OES releases can be upgraded by installing the interim support packs in order. For example, you can upgrade from OES 2 to OES 2 SP1, then from OES 2 SP1 to OES 2 SP2, and finally from OES 2 SP2 to OES 2 SP3. Cross-architecture upgrades (32-bit to 64-bit and 64-bit to 32-bit) are not supported.
