Installation with YaST
Figure 1.5: S/390, zSeries: Overview of Available ZFCP Disks
To use ZFCP disks for the SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server installation, se-
lect ‘Configure ZFCP Disks’ in the selection dialog . This opens a dialog
with a list of the ZFCP disks available on the system. In this dialog, select
‘Add’ to open another dialog in which to enter ZFCP parameters (see Fig-
ure 1.5).
To make a ZFCP disk available for the SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server in-
stallation, use the entry fields ‘Channel Number’, ‘WWPN’ (World Wide
Port), and ‘FCP-LUN’ to specify the parameters identifying the correspond-
ing disk. When you are done, exit the ZFCP dialog with ‘Next’ and the gen-
eral hard disk configuration dialog with ‘Finish’ to continue with the rest of
the configuration.
1.6 Installation Mode
In this dialog, select between a ‘New Installation’ and an ‘Update of an In-
stalled System’. The latter is, of course, only possible if a previous version
of SUSE LINUX is already present. In this case, you can also boot into this
system with ‘Boot Installed System’. If your installed system fails to boot,
perhaps because some important system configuration has been corrupted,
you can try to make the system bootable again with ‘System Repair’. With-
out a previously-installed version of SUSE LINUX, it is only possible to
perform a new installation.
Click ‘OK’ to continue. See Figure 1.6 on the next page.
