Updating an Novell® Open Enterprise Server (OES) 2 Linux server is essentially the same as updating a SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 10 SP3 server except that you apply patches for both SLES 10 SP3 and OES 2 SP2.
To update your server with the patches released from Novell requires you to perform the following tasks during the installation or upgrade or after the installation or upgrade is complete. The instructions in this section are for patching the server after the installation or upgrade is complete.
