Updating an Open Enterprise Server (OES) 2015 SP1 Linux server is essentially the same as updating a SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 11 SP4 server except that you apply patches for both SLES 11 SP4 and OES 2015 SP1.
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.
