SUSE Driver Kit: The ibm_x6-sle11sp3-x86_64 driver kit is SUSE SolidDriver Program compliant. The driver kit was installed during the SLES install process as an initial bootable iso image. This driver must be downloaded and installed before the SLES install. To obtain the driver go to: http://drivers.suse.com/ibm/IBM-X6/sle11-sp3/install-readme.html.
Install: System installed using an external USB DVD drive; the OS was installed from DVD using the UEFI boot loader and elilo system configuration.
PCI Network Pass-Through: System was tested using PCI pass-through where two of the host network adapters were given to one SLES 11 SP3 i586 guest and one SLES 11 SP3 x86-64 guest. Two adapters (ports) from the Intel® I350-T4 ML2 Quad Port GbE Adapter was used during this testing.
Kdump: the crash kernel reserved memory parameter in the elilo.conf file was changed from 128 to 256 (crashkernel:512M-:256M) for kdump to function correctly.
