openSuse Upgrade

[Thomas Wilhelmi]

Hello,

I have an openSuse-Server with 11.4 and Plesk 11.0.9. I would like to upgrade my openSuse to 12.1. I know that Plesk 11.0.9 supports this version. But I'd ike to know the workflow. I'd like to upgrade with changing the repositories from 11.4 to 12.1 and than make a "zypper dup". is Plesk than working after that?

Thanks and best regards.

Open SuSE 12.2 is supported now - http://kb.parallels.com/115224
I suggest you install new Plesk 11 to Open SuSE 12.2 server and use Plesk Mass Transfer Script for migration old Plesk to new.

Thanks for the remark for openSuse 12.2. But the other point doesn't answer my question as far as I understand it. I do not have 2 servers. I just have 1 wich I want to upgrade. Plesk 11 with all fixes is running on the 11.4 openSuse. And this server I would like to upgrade. So do you say I have to deinstall Plesk before I upgrade the openSuse?

I strongly do not recommend you upgrade OS on server where Plesk already running. Consequences may be unpredictable.
If you have only one server I can recommend you create backup of whole server, then create full backup of Plesk. Then you can install fresh OpenSuse 12.2 on server and Plesk. After that you can restore Plesk backup. You can restore backup of whole server at least if all be unsuccessful.

Oh. Okay. Thx for your answer. But the OS-Upgrade should be a bit better supported. This is not so unusual

I have upgraded opensuse from 11.1 to 12.2 with some problems, but all works perfect
