OES 2023: Release Notes

OpenText Open Enterprise Server 2023 delivers all the enterprise-class networking, file, and print services that enterprises have relied on for years. OES 2023 is on SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP4, which provides valuable benefits including power savings, virtualization, manageability, and interoperability.

If SUSE removes specific packages from commercial support, those packages are immediately removed from OES channels including supports for them. You can install the removed packages through an external source.

For example, Midnight Commander and icinga2 were automatically removed from the OES channel when SUSE transferred them to Package Hub 15 SP4, which doesn't have any commercial support from SUSE. The only method, which is not supported by us, is to install them from https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Backports:/SLE-15-SP4/standard/x86_64/.

NOTE:Micro Focus is now OpenText.

OES 2023 provides several new features that reduce administrative complexities and provides access to file and storage services regardless of eDirectory or Active Directory as an identity source. For information about the new features, see Section 1.0, What’s New or Changed in OES 2023.

This Release Notes focuses on issues and information that are specific to the OES 2023 release.

Before installing this release, be sure to review the known issues, as described in Service Issues.
