Abstract

In this chapter, learn how to make the data accessible for installation, install SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server using different methods, and prepare and use the IPL of the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server installation system. Also find out about network configuration and network installation.

2.1. Making the Installation Data Available

This section provides detailed information about making the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server IBM System z installation data accessible for installation. Depending on your computer and system environment, choose between NFS or FTP installation. If you are running Microsoft Windows workstations in your environment, you can also use the Windows network including the SMB protocol to install SUSE Linux Enterprise Server on your IBM System z system.

[Tip]IPL from DVD

Since Service Pack 1 of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Version 10, it is possible to IPL from DVD and use the DVD as the installation medium. This is very convenient if you have restrictions setting up an installation server providing installation media over your network. The prerequisite is an FCP-attached SCSI DVD Drive.

2.1.1. Using a Linux Workstation or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server DVD

If you have a Linux workstation running in your computer environment, use the workstation to provide the installation data to the IBM System z installation process by NFS or FTP. If the Linux workstation runs under SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for x86, you can set up an installation server (NFS or FTP) using the YaST Installation Server module as described in Section “Setting Up an Installation Server Using YaST” (Chapter 4, Remote Installation, ↑Installation and Administration).

2.1.1.1. Over NFS

Use NFS (network file system) to make the installation media available.

[Important]Exporting Mounted Devices with NFS

Exporting the file system root (/) does not imply the export of mounted devices, such as DVD. Explicitly name the mount point in /etc/exports:

/media/dvd  *(ro)

After changing this file, restart the NFS server with the command rcnfsserver restart.

2.1.1.2. Over FTP

Setting up an FTP server on a Linux system involves the installation of the server software itself, such as wuftpd or proftpd, as well as other possible configuration tasks. Using YaST, the installation step is straightforward: select the package to install and start the installation. Skip the configuration of the FTP server if no anonymous FTP should be used for the installation. Instead, use an FTP login with a valid username and password. You might want to create a user account for this task only. The FTP daemon does not need to be started by hand. It can be started by inetd if an FTP connection is requested. To activate the new settings, enter rcinetd restart or rcxinetd restart.

2.1.1.3. SUSE Linux Enterprise Server on DVD

DVD 1 of the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for IBM System z contains a bootable Linux image for Intel-based workstations as well as an image for System z.

For Intel-based workstations, boot from this DVD, answer the questions regarding your language and keyboard layout, and select Start rescue system. You need at least 64 MB RAM for this. No disk space is needed because the entire rescue system resides in the workstation's RAM. This approach takes some Linux and networking experience, because you need to set up the networking of the workstation manually.

For System z, IPL your LPAR/VM guest from this DVD as described in Section 2.4.1.2, “IPL from FCP-Attached SCSI DVD”. After entering your network parameters, the installation system treats the DVD as the source of installation data. Because System z cannot have an X11-capable terminal attached directly, choose between VNC or SSH installation. SSH also provides a graphical installation by tunneling the X connection through SSH with ssh -X.

2.1.2. Using a Microsoft Windows Workstation

If there is a Microsoft Windows workstation available in your network, use this computer to make the installation media available. The easiest way to do this is to use the SMB protocol, already included in the Windows operating system. Be sure to activate SMB over TCP/IP as this enables the encapsulation of SMB packages into TCP/IP packages. Find details in the Windows online help or other Windows-related documentation that covers networking. Another option is to use FTP. This also requires some third-party software for Windows.

2.1.2.1. With SMB

To make the installation media available with SMB, just insert the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server DVD 1 into the DVD drive of the Windows workstation. Then create a new share using the DVD-ROM drive's letter and make it available for everyone in the network.

[Tip]SMB Installation Path for YaST

Consult the README from the highest directory of DVD 1 for detailed information about the syntax of the installation path for YaST.

2.1.2.2. With NFS

Refer to the documentation provided with the third party product that enables NFS server services for your Windows workstation. The DVD-ROM drive containing the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server DVD must be in the available NFS path.

2.1.2.3. With FTP

Refer to the documentation provided with the third party product that is enabling FTP server services on your Windows workstation. The DVD-ROM drive containing the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server DVD must be in the available FTP path.

The FTP server that is bundled with some Microsoft Windows releases implements only a subset of the FTP command set and is not suitable for providing the installation data. However, other products (such as the FTP server that is part of Hummingbird Exceed or WAR-FTPD) have been reported as functional.

2.1.2.4. Using an FCP-Attached SCSI DVD Drive

After you IPLed from the SCSI DVD as described in Section 1.3.4, “Load from SCSI-Attached DVD”, the installation system uses the DVD as the installation medium. In that case, you do not need the installation media on an FTP, NFS, or SMB server. However, you need the network configuration data for your SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, because you must set up the network during the installation to perform a graphical installation by VNC or by X tunneled through SSH.

2.2. Installation Types

This section provides information about which steps must be performed to install SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for each of the installation modes and where to find the appropriate information. After the preparations mentioned in the previous chapters have been accomplished, follow the installation overview of the desired installation mode to install SUSE Linux Enterprise Server on your system.

As described in Section 2.1, “Making the Installation Data Available”, there are two different installation modes for Linux on IBM System z:

  • LPAR Installation

  • z/VM Installation

Procedure 2.1. Overview of LPAR Installation

  1. Prepare the devices needed for installation. See Section 2.3.1, “LPAR Installation”.

  2. IPL the installation system. See Section 2.4.1, “LPAR Installation”.

  3. Configure the network. See Section 2.5, “Network Configuration”.

  4. Connect to the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server installation system. See Section 2.6, “Connecting to the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Installation System”.

  5. Start the installation using YaST and IPL the installed system. See Chapter Installation with YaST (↑Installation and Administration).

Procedure 2.2. Installation Overview of z/VM Installation

  1. Prepare the devices needed for installation. See Section 2.3.2, “z/VM Installation”.

  2. IPL the installation system. See Section 2.4.2, “z/VM Installation”.

  3. Configure the network. See Section 2.5.1, “z/VM Installation”.

  4. Connect to the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server installation system. See Section 2.6, “Connecting to the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Installation System”.

  5. Start the installation using YaST and IPL the installed system. See Chapter Installation with YaST (↑Installation and Administration).

2.3. Preparing the IPL of the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Installation System

2.3.1. LPAR Installation

Configure your IBM System z system to start in ESA/S390 or LINUX-only mode with an appropriate activation profile and IOCDS. Consult IBM documentation for more on how to achieve this.

2.3.1.1. IOCDS: Attaching and Configuring Devices

A SUSE Linux Enterprise Server installation needs at least two devices: a DASD and a network connection device. For an IPL from tape, a tape device should also be accessible. Devices are configured and attached to an LPAR in the IOCDS (input output configuration data set). This example defines one DASD, one OSA-2 network device, and a tape device for LPAR Z1. For further information about how to set up the IOCDS for Linux, refer to IBM hardware documentation of your machine .

Example 2.1. An Example IOCDS

CHPID PATH=FD,TYPE=DSD,PART=(Z1) 
CHPID PATH=FE,TYPE=OSA,PART=(Z1) 
CHPID PATH=10,TYPE=CNC,PART=(Z1)

CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=FD00,PATH=FD,UNITADD=((00,1)),UNIT=3990-2 
IODEVICE ADDRESS=(FD00,1),CUNUMBR=FD00,UNIT=3390

CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=FE20,PATH=FE,UNIT=OSA,UNITADD=((20,1)) 
IODEVICE ADDRESS=(FE20,1),CUNUMBR=FE20,UNIT=OSA,PART=Z1

CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=100A,PATH=10,UNIT=3480,UNITADD=((0A,1)) 
IODEVICE ADDRESS=100A,CUNUMBR=100A,UNIT=3480,PART=Z1

Proceed with Section 2.4.1, “LPAR Installation”.

2.3.2. z/VM Installation

2.3.2.1. Adding a Linux Guest

The first step is to attach and format one or multiple DASDs in the system to be used by the Linux guest in z/VM. Next, create a new user in z/VM. The example shows the directory for a user LINUX1 with the password LINPWD, 256 MB of memory (extendable up to 1024 MB), 32 MB of expanded RAM (XSTORE), some minidisks (MDISK), two CPUs and an OSA QDIO device.

[Tip]Assigning Memory to z/VM guests

When assigning memory to a z/VM guest, make sure that the memory size suits the needs of your preferred installation type. See Section 1.1.1.1, “Memory Requirements”. To set the memory size to 512 MB, use the command CP DEFINE STORAGE 512M. After the installation has finished, reset the memory size to the desired value.

Example 2.2. Configuration of a z/VM Directory

USER LINUX1 LINPWD 256M 1024M G

MDISK 151 3390 0253 2800 DASD40 MR ONE4ME TWO4ME THR4ME

This example uses minidisk 201 as the guest's home disk. Minidisk 150 with 200 cylinders is the Linux swap device. Disk 151 with 2800 cylinders holds the Linux installation.

Now add (as the user MAINT) the guest to the user directory with DIRM FOR LINUX1 ADD. Enter the name of the guest (LINUX1) and press F5. Set up the environment of the user with:

DIRM DIRECT 
DIRM USER WITHPASS

The last command returns a reader file number. This number is needed for the next command:

RECEIVE <number> USER DIRECT A (REPL)

Assign the directories to the guest with DISKMAP USER DIRECT A. You can now log in on the guest as user LINUX1.

If you do not have the dirmaint option available, refer to the IBM documentation to set up this user.

Proceed with Section 2.4.2, “z/VM Installation”.

2.4. IPLing the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Installation System

2.4.1. LPAR Installation

There are different ways to IPL SUSE Linux Enterprise Server into an LPAR. The preferred way is to use the Load from CD-ROM or server feature of the SE or HMC.

2.4.1.1. IPL from DVD-ROM

Mark the LPAR to install and select Load from CD-ROM or server. Leave the field for the file location blank or enter the path to the root directory of the first DVD then select Continue. In the list of options that appears, choose the default selection. Operating system messages should now show the kernel boot messages.

2.4.1.2. IPL from FCP-Attached SCSI DVD

You can use the Load procedure by selecting SCSI as Load type to IPL from SCSI. Enter the WWPN (Worldwide port name) and LUN Logical unit number) provided by your SCSI bridge or storage (16 digits—do not omit the trailing 0s). The boot program selector must be 2. Use your FCP adapter as Load address and perform an IPL.

Figure 2.1. Example:

Example:

2.4.1.3. IPL from ESCON or FICON Attached Tape

If you cannot IPL from DVD-ROM, create a channel attached tape from which to IPL the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server installation image. Use the LOAD button in the SE or HMC with the tape device address as the load address to IPL the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server installation system.

There are many ways to create an IPLable tape. One is to copy the files:

/boot/tapeipl.ikr
/boot/parmfile
/boot/initrd

as binary files from DVD 1 (for example, using FTP from a Linux workstation).

Name them

SLES10 IMAGE
SLES10 PARM
SLES10 INITRD

and write them onto a tape with the REXX from the example.

[Important]Transferring Binaries using FTP

Do not upload the files as fixed 80. Store them as fixed 1024. Use the FTP command locsite fix 1024.

Example 2.3. REXX Script to Create an IPLable Tape

'REWIND 181'
'FILEDEF IN1 DISK' SLES10 IMAGE A
'FILEDEF IN2 DISK' SLES10 PARM A
'FILEDEF IN3 DISK' SLES10 INITRD A
'FILEDEF OUT TAP1 (RECFM F BLOCK 1024 LRECL 1024 PERM'
say 'Writing: ' left(file1,23)
'MOVEFILE IN1 OUT'
say 'Writing: ' left(file2,23)
'MOVEFILE IN2 OUT'
say 'Writing: ' left(file3,23)
'MOVEFILE IN3 OUT'
say 'Done.'
'REWIND 181'
 exit

The tape in this script is attached as 181. Adjust the script to your needs.

2.4.2. z/VM Installation

This section is about IPLing the installation system to install SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for IBM System z on a z/VM system.

2.4.2.1. IPL from the z/VM Reader

You need a working TCP/IP connection and an FTP client program within your newly defined z/VM guest to transfer the installation system via FTP. Setting up TCP/IP for z/VM is beyond the scope of this manual. Refer to the appropriate IBM documentation.

Log in as the z/VM Linux guest to IPL. Make the content of the directory /boot/s390x on DVD 1 of the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for IBM System z available by FTP within your network. From this directory, get the files vmrdr.ikr, initrd, parmfile, and sles10.exec. Transfer the files with a fixed block size of 80 characters. Specify it with the FTP command locsite fix 80. It is important to copy vmrdr.ikr (the Linux kernel) and initrd (the installation image) as binary files, so use the binary transfer mode. parmfile and sles10.exec need to be transferred in ASCII mode.

The example shows the steps necessary. In this example, the required files are accessible from an FTP server at the IP address 192.168.0.3 and the login is lininst. It may differ for your network.

Example 2.4. Transferring the Binaries via FTP

FTP 192.168.0.3

Use the REXX script sles10.exec you just downloaded to IPL the Linux installation system. This script loads the kernel, parmfile, and the initial RAM disk into the reader for IPL.

Example 2.5. SLES10 EXEC

/* REXX LOAD EXEC FOR SUSE LINUX S/390 VM GUESTS       */
/* LOADS SUSE LINUX S/390 FILES INTO READER            */
SAY ''
SAY 'LOADING SLES10 FILES INTO READER...'
'CP CLOSE RDR'
'PURGE RDR ALL'
'SPOOL PUNCH * RDR'
'PUNCH SLES10 IMAGE A (NOH'
'PUNCH SLES10 PARMFILE A (NOH'
'PUNCH SLES10 INITRD A (NOH'
'I 00C'

With this script you can IPL the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server installation system with the command sles10. The Linux kernel then starts and prints its boot messages.

To continue the installation, proceed to Section 2.5.1, “z/VM Installation”.

2.4.2.2. IPL from FCP-Attached SCSI DVD

To IPL in z/VM, prepare the SCSI IPL process by using the SET LOADDEV parameter:

SET LOADDEV PORTNAME 200400E8 00D74E00 LUN 00020000 00000000 BOOT 2

After setting the LOADDEV parameter with the appropriate values, IPL your FCP adapter, for example:

IPL FC00

To continue the installation, proceed with Section 2.5.1, “z/VM Installation”.

2.4.2.3. IPL from ESCON or FICON Attached tape

If you cannot IPL from a z/VM reader, create a channel attached tape from which to IPL the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server installation image. For instructions, refer to Section 2.4.1.3, “IPL from ESCON or FICON Attached Tape”.

To continue the installation, proceed with Section 2.5.1, “z/VM Installation”.

2.5. Network Configuration

Wait until the kernel has completed its start-up routines. If you are installing in basic mode or in an LPAR, open the Operating System Messages on the HMC or SE.

First, choose Start Installation or System in the linuxrc main menu then Start Installation or Update to start the installation process. Select Network as your installation medium then select the type of network protocol you will be utilizing for the installation. Section 2.1, “Making the Installation Data Available” describes how to make the installation data available for the various types of network connections. Currently, FTP, HTTP, NFS, and SMB/CIFS (Windows file sharing) are supported.

Now set up the network device over which to receive the installation data: OSA-2 or OSA Express or HiperSockets. The following network adapters are still available and usable, but no longer supported: CTC, ESCON, IUCV. Next, choose the CCW bus interface and the physical medium (for example, Ethernet or Token Ring). As a result, the respective driver is installed and you see the corresponding kernel messages.

Proceeding with the installation, linuxrc displays a list of potential usable read, write, and, if applicable, data channels. After entering the addresses for each channel, you may also need to enter additional information, such as the port name for OSA ethernet cards.

  • The IP address of the system to install

  • The corresponding netmask

  • The IP address of a gateway to reach the server

  • The IP address of your domain name server (DNS)

When using an OSA Express Network Card you are now prompted for a relative port number. This was added to support the new 2 port OSA Express 3 Network devices. If you are not using an OSA Express 3 device, please enter 0. OSA Express cards also have the option of running in an OSI layer 2 support mode or using the older more common layer 3 mode. The card mode affects all systems that share the device including systems on other LPARs. If in doubt, please specify 2 for compatibility with the default mode used by other operating systems such as z/VM and z/OS. Consult with your hardware administrator for further information on these options.

2.5.1. z/VM Installation

After the kernel has completed its start-up routines, answer a few questions regarding the network setup. First, select the type of network connection to use: OSA Express or HiperSockets. In this example installation, OSA Express is used.

The system now displays a possible OSA configuration. Choose first whether to use QDIO or LCS OSA. Next, choose the physical medium to use and enter the device addresses. If you prefer another setup, enter the device address of the OSA read channel (0.0.0700 in this example) then the one of the OSA write channel (0.0.0701) and the OSA control channel (0.0.0702). After entering the channels, insert the name of the port to which the OSA card is connected.

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server now tries to load the network module by building a parameter line with the information provided then displays all loaded modules. Loading was successful if you get an output like:

Example 2.6. Network Device Driver Parameters

qeth: Device 0.0.0700/0.0.0701/0.0.0702 is a Guest LAN QDIO card (level: V448)
with link type GuestLAN QDIO (portname: VSW1)
qeth: Hardware IP fragmentation not supported on eth0
qeth: VLAN enabled
qeth: Multicast enabled
qeth: IPV6 enabled
qeth: Broadcast enabled
qeth: Could not set up broadcast echo filtering on eth0: 0x2
qeth: Using SW checksumming on eth0.
qeth: Outbound TSO not supported on eth0

Next, enter your IP address, netmask, and default gateway. To install over token ring, iucv, or ctc, enter additional information, like the the peer address (for a point-to-point adapter) or the port name.

Finally, the IP address of the DNS server and the MTU size are requested. The MTU size should always match the one used by the network to which you are connecting.

Now a summary is displayed. Confirm if your input is correct. Before the network is started, enter a password that is valid only during the installation. After having IPLed the installed system, enter the real root password.

With all basic parameters set up, the network is started. Check the output of ifconfig, which should contain two entries: a loopback (lo) connection and one connection (tr0, eth0, ctc0, escon0, iucv0, or hsi0) with correct settings.

Example 2.7. Example ifconfig

/sbin/ifconfig eth0 : 
	Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 02:00:01:00:00:27  
        inet addr:192.168.0.1  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
        inet6 addr: fe80::200:100:100:27/64 Scope:Link
        UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1492  Metric:1
        RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
        TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
        collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
        RX bytes:0 (0.0 Mb)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 Mb)

2.6. Connecting to the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Installation System

After setting up your network connection, linuxrc prompts for the details of the installation source chosen earlier in the process, for example, the server IP address and the directory in which the data is located.

Finally, linuxrc wants to know what type of display you want to use to control the installation procedure. Possible choices are X11 (X Window System), VNC (Virtual Network Computing protocol), and SSH (text mode or X11 installation via Secure Shell).

2.6.1. Initiating the Installation for VNC

  1. After the installation option VNC has been chosen, the VNC server starts. A short note displayed in the console provides information about which IP address and display number is needed for a connection with vncviewer. Alternatively, a URL is given here for entry into your Java-enabled browser to connect to the installation system.

  2. Start a VNC client application on your client system. Either use vncviewer or the VNC Java client and a Java-enabled Web browser.

  3. Enter the IP address and the display number of the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server installation system when prompted to do so.

    If you connect via a Java-enabled browser, enter a URL containing the IP address of the installation system and the appropriate port number in the format:

    http://<IP address of installation system>:5801/
  4. After the connection has been established, start installing SUSE Linux Enterprise Server with YaST.

2.6.2. Initiating the Installation for the X Window System

[Important]X Authentication Mechanism

The direct installation with the X Window System relies on a primitive authentication mechanism based on hostnames. This mechanism is disabled on current SUSE Linux Enterprise Server versions. Installation with SSH or VNC is preferred.

  1. Make sure that the X server allows the client (the system that is installed) to connect. Set the variable DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER_TCP_PORT_6000_OPEN="yes" in the file /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager. Then restart the X server and allow client binding to the server using xhost <client IP address>.

  2. When prompted at the installation system, enter the IP address of the machine running the X server.

  3. Wait until YaST opens then start the installation.

2.6.3. Initiating the Installation for SSH

To connect to an installation system with the name earth using SSH, execute ssh -X earth. If your workstation runs on Microsoft Windows, use the ssh and telnet client and terminal emulator putty, which is available on DVD 1 in the directory /dosutils/putty/. Set Enable X11 forwarding in putty under Connection+SSH+X11.

A login prompt appears. Enter root and log in with your password. Then enter yast2 to start YaST.

Proceed with the detailed description of the installation procedure that can be found in Chapter Installation with YaST (↑Installation and Administration).
