Produktegenskaper

• Full system rollback
  The Full System Rollback feature gives you better resiliency by allowing you to take snapshots of the system, including the kernel files, and roll back. Because the bootloader is now integrated into the rollback process, system administrators can boot from a snapshot, enhancing fault recovery and change tracking and comparison, and improving data safety.
• Extensions for clustering
  Achieve higher service availability by clustering servers together and removing single points of failure. SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension offers an industry-leading, mature high availability solution. Further enhance your business continuity by connecting data centers across unlimited distances with Geo Clustering for SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension.
• YaST support
  Save time and effort in managing local systems with a tool that's easy-to-use and consistent in its user experience. In SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, the popular, user-friendly YaST gives you the capability to customize your system quickly during and after the installation.
• IPv6 support
  The next-generation Internet Protocol version 6 specification (IPv6), the successor to IPv4, can provide far more address space for device connection. SUSE Linux Enterprise Server natively supports IPv6, such as during installation. With IPv6 support, you can connect to next-generation network equipment.
• Flexible deployment options
  You can deploy SUSE Linux Enterprise Server anywhere in physical, virtual and cloud environments. You can deploy it on different hardware architectures like Intel 64, IBM System z and IBM POWER. It is a "perfect guest" - optimized for various hypervisors like Microsoft Hyper-V, VMware vSphere, Xen and KVM. You can also find it in 50-plus public clouds, including Microsoft, Google and Amazon.
• Interactive and unattended upgrades
  Using this feature, system administrators can quickly and easily upgrade their SUSE Linux Enterprise Server operating systems, reducing downtime, lowering administrative costs and improving quality. In fact, SUSE Linux Enterprise supports (manual) major version upgrades for 10 years. With YaST, you can interactively prepare a suitable profile and then use AutoYaST to automatically upgrade groups of servers.
