Been running SMT on a sles11sp3 box for years now, everything is working fine, except I have not seen any updates now for over a week, and usually it’s a couple days at most without updates. I thought I read somewhere about having to change from [nu.novell.com](http://nu.novell.com) to a different repository, but for the life of me I can’t remember what it was. If that change needs to be made, what is the best way to change this to ensure I keep getting required updates? – Stevo ---

I think the change you’re thinking of is the one to switch from Novell Customer Center (NCC) to SUSE Customer Center (SCC) which is required if you want to use SMT with SLES12 but not necessary for SLES11 or earlier. ## HTH.
