If your existing hardware supports SLES 11, you can upgrade the operating system in place without migrating data.

The main upgrade scenarios are as follows:
  • Upgrading a SLES 10 TASM-licensed system to a SLES 11 system licensed for TASM or IWM
  • Upgrading a SLES 10 PSF-licensed system to a SLES 11 system licensed for TASM or IWM
  • Upgrading a SLES 10 appliance-licensed system to a SLES 11 system licensed for IWM
    After upgrading a SLES 10 appliance-licensed system in place, only IWM licensing is available with SLES 11.
