Config Notes

Kdump (SLES12SP3): the crash kernel reserved memory parameters were increased from the default to crashkernel=512M,high crashkernel=128M,low using YaST.
An updated SUSE kernel and Broadcom Emulex lpfc driver was used during testing and is SUSE SolidDriver Program compliant. The kernel and driver was installed from the following Installation Kit: lightpulse_adapters_lpfc-sle12sp3-x86_64-4.0.iso. This driver package can be downloaded and installed during the SLES install. To obtain the kernel and driver installation information go to: https://drivers.suse.com/emulex/LightPulse_Adapters_lpfc/sle-12-sp3-x86_64/4.0/install-readme.html
SR-IOV/PCI Pass-through: Current system configuration does not support network SR-IOV or network PCI pass-through.
