RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Linux Installation on IBM Power Servers

Attaching a draft for Linux install procedure on IBM Power servers. The Information captured here is common for Power10 and Power9 servers connected to HMC (Hardware Management Console)

I have shared the document in pdf format. Hope that's okay.
Comment 3 Sachin Sant 2022-06-16 04:00:09 UTC 
Sagar, Let us know if any additional information is required to take this forward.

The draft install guide provided in the previous comment is also the base for Linux install documents that IBM published on IBM Documentation site
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/linux-on-systems?topic=servers-quick-start-guides-installing-linux
Comment 4 Sagar Dubewar 2022-06-28 12:52:44 UTC 
As per the recent content strategy, we have decided not to include any iBM installation instructions in the RHEL installation docs. We will add a note pointing users to IBM docs for instructions about installation on IBM machines. 

No more updates are pending on this issue hence closing it now. In case any more updates are required, feel free to reopen this issue or create a new one. 

Thank you :)
Comment 5 Vidya 2022-11-09 15:09:32 UTC 
Correction:
The content strategy decision on this was specific to IBM Power System E servers E980 and E950 as we discovered that the RH QE were not testing those environments and that most of it was already covered in the IBM documentation. The content strategy decision was not to copy paste content from IBM docs to RH docs, instead just point to IBM documentation. 
Please let us know in case there are further questions and concerns and we are open to discuss those.
