IBM and also some early adopter customers complaint about the official Ubuntu 16.04 installation guide for s390x (IBM System z):
https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/installation-guide/
mentioning that:
- it contains partly outdated information and links
- that there is not enough s390x / IBM z Systems focus
- that the naming is not correct
- that it includes information that is not relevant to s390x
Due to these complaints and because of the urgency I created an adjusted and revised version of the install guide with special s390x focus and transformed it (for convenience reasons) to a wiki.
It is located here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/S390X/InstallationGuide
It includes two further child documents covering:
- step-by-step instructions on howto setup Ubuntu on z in an LPAR:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/S390X/Installation%20In%20LPAR
- step-by-step instructions on howto setup Ubuntu on z as z/VM guest:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/S390X/Installation%20In%20zVM
- (another set of instructions on howto install on zKVM follows soon)
Please update the official Ubuntu 16.04 installation guide available here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/installation-guide/
especially the s390x specific parts with the revised version that is temporarily available from that wiki:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/S390X/InstallationGuide
It will also be helpful if the links at the Installation Guide landing page that points to the s390x version(s) can be temporarily replaced by the link to the wiki - just until the update and merge is completed. |

SRU Request:
============
[Impact]
* Updated the desired changes of the inst. guide regarding naming conventions etc.
* and s390x specific details
* Because 18.04.1 is the main upgrade target it's important to have it in place with 16.04.1
* The changes on the doc not only updated the outdated content ...
* ... but also added new functions and technology (like FCP) that was added to the platform since the last update
[Test Case]
* Open the updated doc - as either html, PS, PDF or txt ...
* and compare the modified and new content with the current functionality the platform provides
[Regression Potential]
* The regression potential is low because most changes are platform (s390x) specific
* However, since it's written in docbook with several conditional statements changes on one platform may cause an impact to other, too.
* For verification reasons I created the guide after my changes not only for s390x, but also for other platforms...
* ... and even found two issues that I fixed (nested use of xml elements, that cause issues while creating PDF, even if HTML creation still worked fine ...)
* No impact is expected on an Ubuntu installation itself - since it's documentation only. |
