Notable Changes

- SLE Micro 5.3 is based on SLE 15 SP4 where SLE Micro 5.2 was based on SLE
15 SP3. Please check out the Release Notes for SLES 15 SP4 x86_64[2],
s390x[3] and aarch64[4]
- NetworkManager is the new default instead of Wicked
- UserSpace Live Patching as Technology Preview
- 5G support is included as of Beta2
- New plug-ins added for Cockpit
- Added the default set of Cockpit plug-ins to the raw images
- SLE Micro for Rancher OCI now uses NetworkManager
- Several bug-fixes

As always, we highly recommend to check our Release Notes[5] for a
complete overview of the changes in this new version.

Known issues

We are aware of several issues with Cockpit plug-ins:

- The SELinux plug-in misses the dependency on
policycoreutils-python-utils package; it needs to be installed
manually. It also suggests to install setroubleshoot-server for
additional functionality, which is not available for SLE Micro
(setroubleshoot-server is not expected to be included in SLE Micro
5.3) (bsc#1203371)
- The kdump plug-in fails to enable kdump correctly if it was not
enabled before (bsc#1203374)

An updated list of known issues can be found here[6].
