Package and System Management Tools for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and openSUSE
The purpose of this page is to point out some tools for package and system management specific to SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and openSUSE.
This page is linked from the images which run SUSE in a cloud provider environment so some prior Linux experience is assumed.
Install Additional Software
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and openSUSE use zypper for package management and YaST for system administration.
Best usage is under root. Some of the most popular uses are:
To search for nmap: zypper search nmap
To install nmap: sudo zypper in nmap
To list repositories: zypper lr
To list updates : zypper lu
To patch the system: zypper patch
There are many more zypper commands in addition to this short list. Explore a full description of zypper commands, or type zypper -h
System Management
The system management tool YaST can be run as yast from the command line. To run YaST, you must be root. More information can be found here:
http://en.opensuse.org/YaST_Software_Management
In case you need to install YaST after you have already set up the image, run this from the command line:
zypper install --type pattern yast2_basis
Once installed, just type yast as root to see this screen: (click image to enlarge)

The Goods
SUSE Package Hub packages are built and maintained by a community of users and «packagers» utilizing the Open Build Service. That means you don’t need to build everything alone yourself!
SUSE Approved
While the packages from the SUSE Package Hub are not officially supported by SUSE, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server remains supported and supportable when using these packages.
Factory Built
openSUSE Factory is the package production system churning out high quality, up-to-date packages for openSUSE Tumbleweed and openSUSE Leap distributions. The exact same source code qualified and approved for those distributions is used for the SUSE Package Hub.
Free!
There is no extra cost to use SUSE Package Hub packages with valid SUSE Linux Enterprise subscriptions.
Always There
Searching for those packages that used to be available on download.opensuse.org or some other community download site? Packages in the Package Hub remain available for the life of the SUSE Linux Enterprise product. Also, every release remains available, so if an update breaks something, you can easily roll back to the previous release.
How to Use
Using the SUSE Package Hub with SUSE Linux Enterprise products is as easy as:
- Register your SUSE product
- Enable the SUSE Package Hub extension
- Search for and install packages using standard SUSE tools
Become a Contributor
Are you already maintaining packages for openSUSE Factory and want to share them with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 users?
one, two, three.
- Add the openSUSE:Backports:SLE-12 repository to the project the packages are maintained in
- Build the packages against the Backports project
- osc mr $MYPROJECT/$MYPACKAGE openSUSE:Backports:SLE-12
Are you already maintaining packages for openSUSE Leap 15.x? Those packages are probably already part of Package Hub for SLE 15 users via automatic integration!
For more information visit the [developer docs](https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Backports_Package_Submission_Process).
