   You will not get that information in TW.   
      
   The automated system can not tell you, because there are almost no   
   updates, meaning, the update repository is empty.   
      
   Instead, you periodically do "zypper dup". You decide when. I recommend   
   doing them only when you can allow a full reboot.
