Beginning with OES 2018 SP1, Novell Business Continuity Cluster (BCC) is available as a pattern in the OES installation pattern list. Apply the latest OES 2018 SP1 maintenance patches on all nodes in every peer cluster to automatically upgrade the BCC.
To download OES 2018 SP1, go to Open Enterprise Server 2018 SP1 and download the ISO files. Maintenance patches are available through the OES 2018 SP1 patch channel.
See the OES 2018 SP1: Installation Guide for information on installing, configuring, and updating (patching) OES 2018 SP1. For OES 2018 SP1 system requirements, see Preparing to Install OES 2018 SP1
in the OES 2018 SP1: Installation Guide.
If you are upgrading an existing business continuity cluster 2.x to BCC 2.6, you must upgrade the Identity Manager servers in the BCC before you upgrade the peer clusters. See the following resources for upgrade requirements:
