Keep verified backups<\/strong>: Do not skip this step. Before typing the following commands, you must back up all data and config files. Also, ensure your system backup is up-to-date and restorable in an emergency. The author or nixCraft is not liable for damages due to failed upgrades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The openSUSE Leap version 15.3 is only available as the 64-bit release. Next, type the following zypper command to update all existing packages. To refresh a repo, enter: Before the upgrade procedure can begin, apply all pending upgrades or security patches<\/a>. For example: Now note down the current Linux kernel version<\/a>, type: Now my cloud server is fully patched. It is time to update the server to OpenSUSE version 15.4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The update repository must exist and is enabled and update before upgrading to 15.3. Verify it using the zypper command as follows: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Verify that we can get latest OpenSUSE 15.4 version, run: In the above output results, check the last URI column). All repository links should contain 15.4 or openSUSE_Leap_15.4 as a version number. If not check if your Leap repos defined in \/etc\/zypp\/repos.d\/ are using the $releasever variable already in the URIs. For example, try the grep command<\/a>: It is time to switch and refresh all repositories to 15.4 using the following syntax and grab the repository metadata: Next, execute the following command for full distribution upgrade to 15.4 from 15.3. Please note that command must be typed from non-GUI (KDE\/GNOME) mode. Hence, it is recommended you run the command from either runlevel 3 (text + network), or a virtual console (see how to switch boot target to text or GUI in systemd Linux<\/a> for more info.). You can press Ctrl-Alt-F2<\/kbd> (all at the same time) to switch to virtual terminal 2. One can also issue the following command: <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n At the following prompt type y<\/kbd> and hit the [Enter]<\/kbd> key to start upgrade procedure:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The zypper command will download, install, or upgrade a total of 486 packages on my cloud server. The procedure to download and install packages takes its own sweet time. So, naturally, your Internet and cloud server speed plays a significant role. In the end, you should see an output as follows showing you must reboot the OpenSUSE server or desktop:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Therefore, reboot the Linode or AWS cloud server using the shutdown command<\/a> or reboot command<\/a> as follows: Make sure everything is working. First, find OpenSuse Linux Version<\/a> and other info: Finally, again use the zypper command to apply security patches, software updates and Linux kernel: Hopefully this will help a lot of you keep up to date and secure<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chris aka carpenox <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" How to – Upgrade OpenSuSE Leap 15.3 to 15.4 This article will go over how to upgrade Leap 15.3 to 15.4 since 15.3 is end of life Step 1.
