Description
I needed to do some manual steps after SP2 installation:
zypper ar -r http://download.suse.de/ibs/Devel:/Virt:/SLE-12-SP2/SUSE_SLE-12-SP2_Update_standard/Devel:Virt:SLE-12-SP2.repo
zypper in qemu-ipxe qemu-vgabios
ppc64_cpu --smt=off
modprobe kvm_hv

one more thing - 'serial console' is wrong for power in grub config
Updated by okurz about 6 years ago
- Related to action #33181: [tools]powerqaworker-qam-1 has no access to kvm kernel module added
Updated by okurz about 6 years ago
And additionally as documented in #33181 it seems chmod 666 /dev/kvm is necessary as a temporary measure or a corresponding static udev rule.

When you say it's "wrong", you mean … what exactly? Or do you think it was never done properly and osukup fixes it with https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-states-openqa/merge_requests/32 ?

I don't remember exactly what went wrong - either kernel updates wouldn't update the initrd or grub wouldn't boot at all.

Picking after Oli's work... since workers have different configuration, just want to make sure that they all share the same thing.

Hmm... All of the serial consoles seem to be the same... or at least to be overriden,

Setting to feedback for the time being... Not sure if to address the serial consoles atm... (Probably install a new machine and see what happens? :D)
