how to install Novell SuSE Linux Enterprise Server for IBM zSeries

Installing SLES on IBM zSeries involves aligning with your mainframe environment, licensing entitlements, and applying the appropriate installation media. The following steps provide a high-level guideline to get you started within a typical zSeries deployment. Always refer to your specific license and the official installation documentation provided through your VLA and PartnerNet access for exact commands and media references.

  • Prepare the IBM zSeries environment: Verify hardware compatibility, obtain the VM or LPAR configuration, and ensure storage and networking infrastructure are ready to support the Linux instance.
  • Acquire and validate entitlement: Retrieve your license entitlement via Electronic Keep, confirm the 1-engine allocation, and ensure the 3-year term is active in your account.
  • Load installation media: Mount the SLES for IBM zSeries installation media in your zSeries environment, or use a network-based deployment method consistent with your infrastructure.
  • Configure system settings: During installation, set up network interfaces, storage volumes, hypervisor or virtualization layer settings, and any required zSeries-specific kernel parameters for optimal performance.
  • Install and activate the OS: Proceed with the SLES installation, select the IBM zSeries profile, and apply the license entitlement to activate the subscription. After installation, enable automatic updates to receive ongoing security patches and feature improvements during the term.
  • Post-install validation: Apply the initial updates, verify kernel compatibility with your mainframe firmware, and configure essential services (SSH, monitoring agents, backup integration) to meet your operational requirements.

VERY comfortable shoe, great for wearing on long days.
Size: 11, Color: All Black
VERY comfortable shoe for the price!! Just as comfortable as my name brand shoes, Nike, ASICS and Adidas. Not sure how long these will last only have had them for a short time, I will update my review at a later date for that! It does run pretty wide, I have a wide forefoot it was large on me. I recommend ordering at least a 1/2 -full size down if you are a woman wearing this shoe. I normally wear a 10.5 men's, I ordered an 11, it was large on me. Good amount of stretch to the shoe as well, good and breathable. I did retrofit an arch support insert and replaced the he laces with elastic ones. Made the shoe EXTREMELY easy to wear and put on hands free (when needed). I have to say it's great for a variety of activities, as well. So fa wore to work, vacation walking and running errands.

Exactly the shoes I've been looking for...
Size: 11, Color: All Black
I attend a lot of concerts and an annual 5 day music festival in Baltimore. Needless to say it is a lot of walking and standing on concrete. Of course my feet, knees and legs absorb a lot of punishment especially at 61 years young. I looked around on Amazon before attending this year in hopes to find shoes that may help at a reasonable cost. Let me tell you I just returned from this years fest and all I can say is buying these Feethit Sneakers was the best decision I made. Super comfortable, didn't require a lot of break in, lightweight, flexible with fantastic support. Everything I had hoped to find and can't believe all the boxes were checked with one show. 5 days of walking and standing and could have easily done 5 more. Thanks so much Feethit !!!!
