SLES12 SP2 appears as Physical in customer center

SUSE Product Topics SLES for POWER

Friends;

As mentioned above; there is no problem reported while registering the virtual SLES12 SP2 server; however those appears as physical rather than virtual. At the same time; if I register other system configured with SLES11SP4; it displays correctly.

All these virtual hosts are installed on IBM Power E870 Frame.

Let me know if you need any more information on this to advice.

I have reviewed article available on https://www.suse.com/support/kb/doc/?id=7017181 and can confirm that SUSEConnect version is higher than the recommended.

Hi yadwendrav,

That TID was applicable specifically to SLES12 & SLES12 SP1.

It turns out there is still a problem with registering a SLES 12 SP2/SP3
server on IBM Power, and I can indeed confirm that after registration,
servers indeed do show as physical, rather than virtual.

There is no short-term solution for this, but it should not pose you any
issues.

Best regards
Hans
