I think the requirement should be in the image rpm as it is the driver for the migration.
Also I am not certain the Requires:
is correct. It uses rpm macros for identifying versions in the build service, I don't think these work during installation. For installation I think we would need a dependency on the release packages. For example SLES For SAP has the package name SLES_SAP-release
product package definitions can be found in the _product
package definition of the given distro in IBS.

Version: 12 Patch: 3 Requires: product(SUSE_SLE) >= %{version}.%{patch} || product(SUSE_SLE_SAP) >= %{version}.%{patch}
not sure if this what you meant after I checked the file
SLES_SAP-release.spec
of_product
forDevel:SAP:SLE-12

Yes I think that is correct, please double check with one of the release managers for SLE. @aosthof can point you in the right direction.
I put the question label here since we need to clarify the concept with @aosthof Thanks
@aosthof any news ?
@jesusbv you could make this PR conflict free with out current best guess approach. Thoughts ?
Thanks guys
@aosthof any news ?
@schaefi @jesusbv Sorry for my late reply, had a chat with Stefan Weiberg now how we can check for SLES for SAP as product.
So, there are a couple of things:
Requires: product(SUSE_SLE) >= %{version}.%{patch} || product(SUSE_SLE_SAP) >= %{version}.%{patch}
needs to be changed in the following way:
product(SUSE_SLE)
--> product(SLES)
product(SUSE_SLE_SAP)
--> product(SLES_SAP)
version
variable of the package itself, I'd either hardcode the version to 12.3
or e.g. use a variable called MinSLEVersion
The resulting line should then look like:
Requires: product(SLES) >= %{MinSLEVersion} || product(SLES_SAP) >= %{MinSLEVersion}
And if I understood the concept of the DMS packages correctly this line has to be added to the suse-migration-sle15-activation
and SLES12-SP4-SLES15-Migration
packages.
Regarding the latter, you might want to also think about a different name of the package. SLES12-SP4-SLES15-Migration
actually offers (will soon offer) migrations from SLES 12 SP3, SP4 and SP5 to SLES 15, but judging from the name one might think this is only available for SLES 12 SP4.
The resulting line should then look like: ... And if I understood the concept of the DMS packages correctly this line has to be added to the suse-migration-sle15-activation and SLES12-SP4-SLES15-Migration packages.
Correct. Thanks much for the details. I will add the change to the SLES12-SP4-SLES15-Migration package. @jesusbv can you add the change here in the git for the activation package. Thanks
Regarding the latter, you might want to also think about a different name of the package
I agree. I will open a new issue for the package name change. This would require a correct obsoletes and requires as well as a doc change and I don't want to make mistakes here. Thus your input on that new issue would be much appreciated. Thanks
I'd either hardcode the version to 12.3 or e.g. use a variable called MinSLEVersion
@aosthof is the variable MinSLEVersion defined by some suse macro or ist that something we need to define ourselves ?
Thanks

The change will go to Devel:PubCloud/suse-migration-rpm
if approved. Thanks

I'm not aware that this variable already exists, this is just a name I came up with.

We define the variable MinSLEVersion
(or another name for that purpose) or hardcode the value directly.
Is that correct ?
Yes, this LGTM

Yes, very good point. Thanks @aosthof
ok thanks Alex. @jesusbv can you adapt the change in this PR to:
a) revert the changes in package/suse-migration-services-spec-template b) apply a similar change like the diff I posted to package/suse-migration-sle15-activation-spec-template
Once done we merge this PR first and then I "osc ci" the change in the suse-migration-rpm which makes it effective on the next rebuild of the image.
Thoughts ?
@jesusbv can you squash into one and then merge. Thanks much
The minimum migration starting point should be
SLES 12 SP3
or
SLES For SAP 12 SP3.
