i assume the problem is to boot local disk from lsof, for booting sle12 images, specify 'scsi@5' is fine

boot /pci\t/sc\t5

and to boot sle15 images, maybe the number of root partition is different with sle12 images, so find correct 'scsi@x' that may solve it.
since we don't have local power worker to verify what i thought, @lemon please ask someone in NUE who have local power worker to try it.

http://e13.suse.de/tests/10266# my ppc64le remote worker has the same problem.

There was no issue for boot SLES-15-ppc64le-GM-gnome.qcow2. The difference here:

After installation it still trys to boot up from CD image which is not correct.

Of course it should boot up directly from installed image. This will avoid any problem with CD image bootloader on ppc64le.

Anyway both way should work.

Boot up from ISO which is for following Upgrade steps so we have to set BOOTFROM=d in this case

This issue failed for openqa setting more argument for /usr/bin/qemu-system-ppc64 (such as +-device virtio +-serial), this may caused by VIRTIO_CONSOLE=1 since build 95.1, then new device serial will be added which caused the scsi device id changed from 5 to 6. So we need to updated the scsi boot id from 5 to 6.
