That's exactly the kind of scenario where scpm comes into play:
user@linux:~> rpm -qi scpm

Summary : System Configuration Profile Management
Description :
SCPM enables your system to save different configurations in
profiles. You can boot directly into a profile as well as
switch profiles at run time. It is the successor of scheme
management.
Have a look at the YaST2 profile manager. It's a frontend to scpm.
scpm is also described in the green adminstration manual. Read this first
befor you start using it.
