Quote from a #SUSE blog post about Systems Management with SLES 16:

"'#YaST in maintenance mode

With the development of #SLES 16, SUSE is putting YaST into maintenance mode. The installation and configuration tool YaST will continue to be fully supported as part of SLES 15. For SLES 16, some of YaST’s components are used as base of Agama, YaST as a tool is replaced by #Agama, #Cockpit and #Ansible."'

I have successfully migrated a SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP6 in-place to openSUSE Leap 15.6. The whole thing was done on a Raspberry Pi 3, hence based on the aarch64 CPU architecture.

There was not much to do and the whole procedure went without any problems.

If you are interested, here is a short guide:

1\ Unregister the system and delete all local registration information.

# SUSEConnect --de-register
# SUSEConnect --cleanup
# zypper clean all
# rm -rf /var/cache/zypp

2\ Now delete /etc/zypp and replace it with a version from an openSUSE server. Don't forget to adapt the repos to your requirements.

3\ Time for the migration!

# zypper --releasever=15.6 ref
# zypper --releasever=15.6 dup --allow-vendor-change
# unlink /etc/products.d/baseproduct
# ln /etc/products.d/Leap.prod /etc/products.d/baseproduct

4\ Thats it, reboot!

@ravirockks OFC they don't.

At best they show people how to change fan curves in the #UEFI or hiw to run #memtest86+, but mostly they just "teach" people how to consume #Windows and at best #macOS and that's it.

Same with @libreoffice / #LibreOffice & @thunderbird / #Thunderbird.

Do NOT update #SLES SUSE Enterprise Server 15 Servicepack 5 Packages.

This will break module HTTP/2:
httpd-event: Syntax error in -C/-c directive: Syntax error on line 32 of /etc/apache2/sysconfig.d/loadmodule.conf: Cannot load /usr/lib64/apache2-event/mod_http2.so into server: /usr/lib64/apache2-event/mod_http2.so: undefined symbol: ap_thread_create

I opened up a case at SCS

Packages are:
apache2
apache2-prefork
apache2-utils
Version 2.4.51-150400.6.40.1
