which repos for sles11sp2?

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server SLES Updates
1

Hi,

after a fresh install of an SLES11SP2/OES11SP1 and registration at a local
SMT-Server, I get a lot of aktiv repos.

Which repos are neccessary?

zypper lr

|Name | Enabled | Refresh

—±----------------------------------------------------------±---------
1 |OES11-SP1-Pool | Yes | Yes
2 |OES11-SP1-Updates | Yes | Yes
3 |SLE11-WebYaST-SP2-Pool | No | Yes
4 |SLE11-WebYaST-SP2-Updates | No | Yes
5 |SLES11-Extras | No | Yes
6 |SLES11-SP1-Pool | Yes | Yes
7 |SLES11-SP1-Updates | Yes | Yes
8 |SLES11-SP2-Core | Yes | Yes
9 |SLES11-SP2-Updates | Yes | Yes

I guess that only the SLES11SP2-Updates & -Core, and OES11SP1-Updates & -
Pool are neccessary, but why are the SLES11SP1 repos are enabled? Is there a
new strategy?

Yes, there is. With SP2 you will also have the SP1 repos. See http://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7010225

Thank you very much for this fast and clear answer.

I hope that this is the last change in this strategy … Every version - new
strategy … :-\
