I have made myself some how-to doc on this, and i have SLES 8 running on s390x. Here
is my Doc, it is very short really.
of course you will have to change the device id's and such to fit your configuration.
Hipersockets Configuration
1. First add an alias to the hipersocket in /etc/modules.conf
using vi open up /etc/modules.conf and at the end of the file add the following
# alias hsi1 qeth
2. Second add the following to the bottom of the file /etc/chandev.conf
# noauto;qeth1,0xed04,0xed05,0xed06,8192
Address ed04 is the read control I/O device, address ed05 is the write control
I/O device, and address ed06 is the data exchange device.
3. Refresh /proc/chandev with the following command
# echo reset_conf\;read_conf > /proc/chandev
4. Configure network with ifconfig
# ifconfig hsi1 IP_ADDRESS netmask NETMASK_ADDRESS broadcast BROADCAST_ADDRESS up

Are there any SLES-8 specific hipersockets documentation out there?

In SLES8, this stuff would go in /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-hsi1
instead of rc.config and would look more like:
BOOTPROTO='static'
STARTMODE='ONBOOT'
IPADDR='192.168.252.13'
NETMASK='255.255.255.0'
NETWORK='192.168.252.0'
BROADCAST='192.168.252.255'
