Update your system with “yast2 online\_update” command or zypper: [https://www.suse.com/documentation/sles11/book\_sle\_admin/data/sec\_zypper.html](https://www.suse.com/documentation/sles11/book_sle_admin/data/sec_zypper.html)

Firstly please note that this forum is for issues specifically relating  
to SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) for SAP Applications and not  
“regular” SLES.

As to TID 3594951 I’m afraid that needs updating (which I’ll flag to my  
SUSE/Micro Focus contacts) since the latest kernel for SLES11 SP4 is  
currently 3.0.101-107.1.

yes, agree with you.

My question is about the kernel latest version of SLES 11.4 for SAP Application and the steps to upgrade the kernel.

Tq,  
Andre

I don’t have a SLES for SAP Applications server to hand but checking  
SUSE’s Patch Finder[1] for SLES for SAP Applications 11 SP4 I don’t see  
any kernel packages listed.

However I don’t believe there isn’t a newer kernel available so you  
should update your server via YaST or “zypper up -t patch” - I’m  
guessing that perhaps you have never done this?
