It is important to note that, OpenSUSE 15.1 and 15.2 are not the latest releases, and are not supported anymore. Upgrading to a newer version of OpenSUSE is recommended. Also, it’s important to backup your data and to test the upgrade in a non-production environment before upgrading a production system.
To upgrade OpenSUSE to a newer version, you can use the command-line interface (CLI) by following these steps:
- First, ensure that your system is up-to-date by running the command “sudo zypper update”
- Next, you will need to add the repository of the new version, you can do this by running the command “sudo zypper ar -f <repository_url>”
- Once the repository is added, you can update the system by running the command “sudo zypper dup”
- During the upgrade process, you will be prompted to confirm the installation of new packages and to resolve any conflicts.
- After the upgrade process is complete, you will need to reboot your system by running the command “sudo reboot”
- You can check your version by running the command “lsb_release -a”
It’s important to note that, upgrading a system can be a complex process and that it can cause problems if not done correctly. It’s recommended to backup your data and to test the upgrade in a non-production environment before upgrading a production system.
Additionally, it’s recommended to check if there are any known issues before upgrading and to check the release notes of the new version.
