1. Feature Overview:
Feature Id:	[201689]
a. Name of Feature:	Installer - FCP automatic port discovery
b. Feature Description
This feature should exploit the functionality to discover the WWPNs port on the Storage System,
integrating the ports (WWPNs) discovered as a drop down list (combobox) in the SCSI configuration
dialog, so that the customer does not have to manually give it.

Additional Comments:	This is the installer part for feature 201171 [FCP] Automatic port discovery

2. Feature Details:
Sponsor:	zSeries
Architectures:
s390x

Arch Specificity: Both
Affects Installer: Yes
Delivery Mechanism: Request Red Hat development assistance
Category:	Installation
Request Type:	Installer - Enhancement from Distributor
d. Upstream Acceptance:	No Code Required
Sponsor Priority	1
f. Severity: High
IBM Confidential:	no
Code Contribution:	no
g. Component Version Target:	n/a

3. Business Case
These changes will improve the installation experience for customers by making the installation
workflow more usable and efficient, which will result on an improvement of the customer
satisfaction. Without this feature is the input of a 64bit value in Hex (=16 characters) not so so
usable and can produce errors and frustration for the customer.
