Dear Debian Installer Team and Maintainers,
I would like to contribute a new package for the Debian Installer
to configure FCP devices and install Debian on SCSI devices which
are available on Linux on z Systems.
FCP device provide access to SAN storage, for example, SCSI devices.
SCSI devices and DASD devices are the main storage devices on a mainframe.
With the FCP configuration utility, users can enable FCP devices.
Depending on the hardware configuration of the FCP devices, LUNs will
be automatically detected and attached; alternatively, users are guided
to manually add LUNs. The FCP configuration utility can be preseeded
to perform an unattended configuration of FCP devices.
I will attach the patches for this new utility, as well as, a README
with more details in another mail.
Feedback for the FCP configuration utility is very welcome!
I am looking forward to discuss and work with you on the steps to make
it available with the Debian Installer.
Thank you very much!
Kind regards,
Hendrik
