Before you can use ZENworks 11 SP2 to upgrade OES 2 SP1 servers to OES 2 SP2, you must have the following:
A ZENworks 11 SP2 server installed and running in your network.
For more information, see the ZENworks 11 SP2 Server Installation Guide.
The ZENworks 11 SP2 Agent installed on each OES 2 SP1 server that you plan to upgrade.
IMPORTANT:The agent included with OES only provides package-management capabilities via the ZENworks Management Daemon. Unless the full agent is installed, updates cannot be scheduled from the ZENworks 11 SP2 server.
Each OES 2 SP1 server registered with the ZENworks 11 SP2 server.
Each OES 2 SP1 server updated with the latest OES 2 SP1 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 10 SP2 patches.
It doesn’t matter which update method you use.
