Applies To

Cryptshare Appliance with openSUSE 15.3

Problem

Operating system is not up to date and may have unpatched security vulnerabilities.

Cause

No regular OS updates made via the Cryptshare Server Admin Interface when these were available.

Solution/Workaround

Backup of the entire system
It is highly recommended to make a full backup/snapshot of the server in order to be able to restore the state before the first update steps were made.
Step 1: Updating the existing operating system to the latest version

- log in as root on the appliance

- stop Cryptshare service with the command

rccryptshare stop

- run the following commands, to install current patches

zypper refresh

zypper up -t patch

- execute the following command as often as necessary until you receive the message “Nothing to do.”

zypper up -t patch

Step 2: Manually OS upgrade to openSUSE-15.4

- run the following commands, to add new repositories

wget https://update.cryptshare.com/cryptshare/scripts/addRepo-15.4.sh

sh addRepo-15.4.sh

- run the following command, to perform the OS upgrade

zypper dup --download-in-advance

- wait for the process is finishing

- run the commands

sync

reboot

- after rebooting log in again as root

- check the OS version with

cat /etc/os-release

The following output should be shown:
