Hi,

we are happy to announce Alpha-202310-2 for SLE 15 SP6. The snapshot media is only released to our partners in the Partner Beta Program and is accessible to all members of the Public Beta Program via the Pool channel. To update they need to force a refresh via 'sudo zypper ref --force' and do a 'sudo zypper dup'.

The Alpha builds are not provided to the Partner and are not part of the Public Beta Program.
