I think, in SLES 11, you either must use Yast to add disks, or to use the scripts supplied by Novell that Yast calls. The script to add dasd is dasd_configure, and if you run it without any arguments, it shows this help: Usage: /sbin/dasd_configure <ccwid> <online> <use_diag> For your use, you'd enter: dasd_configure 0.0.0203 1 0 This will create the needed udev rules so that the device will be placed online at boot time. I don't think I'd recommend copying or editing the rules files directly. By the way, the dasd_configure script also exists in SLES 10, but it created the hardware configuration files in /etc/sysconfig/hardware instead.
