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.

This feature will allow Linux-on-LPAR-only customers as soon as a userspace tool, to not have to
extra install z/VM or z/OS to be able to dynamically change IOCDs and not to do IML of the machine,
which will benefit availability and costs for customers.

Hello Red Hat,
As mentioned this feature need to be blacklisted for R6.

Based on bug calls opened a separate BZ
LTC 60560  -  RIT498253- I/O dynamic configuration support for s390x needs to be blacklisted for RHEL6
Comment 4 IBM Bug Proxy 2010-06-25 06:20:40 UTC 
------- Comment From mgrf.com 2010-06-25 02:10 EDT-------
The following BZ is verified OK:
LTC 60560  -  RIT498253- I/O dynamic configuration support for s390x needs to
be blacklisted for RHEL6
-> that verifies this feature is blacklisted in R6.

Further action to be evaluated for future R6 updates.

Based on that set this feature to verified for R6.
