Hello,

does anyone know a software for organizing patches (and possibly
software too) for a data center with a lot of server.
Before distribute the patches, they should be manually tested on
separate machines and approved from a responsible person and than
released only to dedicated servers or server groups.
We need also an overview about installed patches and packages.

I know ZENworks Linux Management, but does anyone know other similar
software to do that?

Operationsystem is SLES or OpenSuSE, if necessary only SLES is possible.

Thanks Meike
Sounds like you may be looking for WebYaST, assuming i can guess at
understanding what you are looking for. Are you familiar with WebYaST?
