No, I did not.
But, I will now and hope it take cares of my problem after our downtime
weekend.

Did you create the dasd config file like that Redbook page says?:
similar to their example of
/etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-dasd-bus-ccw-0.0.0201

Patrick,
I did not issue comands mkinitdr and zipl.
Redbook sg24-6694 page 186 section 6.1 says that "with sles 9, you no
longer need to run the mkinitrd and zipl commands in order to configure
new
ECKD)."
But my dasd disappeared anyway. I am still researching what else I need
to
do. Meanwhile I re-added the space, formated, and it shows in lsdasd.

You're missing the post-storage configure mkinitrd && zipl steps.
Otherwise whenever the system reboots, the kernel doesn't know about the
new devices.
