zypper update with a data to install some updates with release date after desired cut-off-date
Not sure I understand your question - are you wanting to install all updates with a release date within a specific time period?
reopening this conversion @smflood,
for example, i have UAT, DR and PRD - 3 Environments
initially, UAT servers planned for patching on 1 Jan 2025. after 2 weeks of gap planned for DR on 15 Jan 2025.
Finally, planned for PRD on 1 Feb 2025.
My query is what are the packages were installed in UAT same packages should be installed in PRD. Because from UAT to PRD we are having 1 month of gap. In this one month gap lot of packages will be updated.
What you’re describing is lifecycle management which is a feature of SUSE Multi-Linux Manager (previously known as SUSE Manager) and it’s upstream open source project Uyuni. It’s not something which zypper can do on it’s own.
