Going forward I am concerned with any possibility to regression test this. I'd be helpful to arrange access for a crash-and-burn VM with a zFCP HBA attached somewhere. (I know that this is difficult because it also requires more elaborate storage zoning.) The other case I'm wondering about is how well the installer will handle the non-presence of DASDs and the co-existence of both. In other news I just pushed the package to Debian NEW. There might be concerns about the proper labeling of the license, in which case we need to iterate a bit. But the package itself looked ready to upload. Kind regards and thanks Philipp Kern
