Re-Register Operating System wizard: System Disks page

Use this page to specify any changes concerning disks with data that are closely related to the operating system.

Introduction

The System Disks page provides a table of all disks available to the operating system instance.

You cannot make changes to an operating system configuration using this wizard. Only specify different disks if corresponding changes have been made outside z/VM Center.

Fields

Optional: Select additional disks that hold the operating system, installed applications, or other data directly associated with the operating system. Clear the check boxes for disks that had been selected but no longer hold such information.

If you create an operating system template from this operating system instance, the data from the essential disks are transferred to the template and to all operating system instances that are based on the template.

Name
