I know that existing SLES12 SP2 can be added as compute node using “crowbar_register” script. Can an existing SLES12 SP3 added as Compute node of SOC 7? If so, is the steps same as adding SLES 12 SP2?

SOC7 officially only supports SLES12 SP2, but most of the code will work on SP3 as well - the one hard package is the openvswitch-kmp which will probably need to be rebuilt from source for the SP3 kernel.
Or maybe you just use the neutron linuxbridge code. Then you will not need the openvswitch-kmp.

SOC8 (coming next year) will work with SLES12 SP3

Thanks for the clarification.
