You shouldn't need to access the installation media. If you have registered your system, you should have the Pool and Update repositories automatically added that live on nu.novell.com. Then it's a simple "zypper in" command to get what you want. If you have a good number of systems that are going to be doing this, then it would make sense to install the Subscription Management Tool (SMT) add-on product and register your systems against that. https://download.suse.com/Download?buildid=l8FuDkiYOg0~ If nothing else, SMT will provide a local mirror copy of all the SLES RPMs, saving a lot of bandwidth for downloading packages to lots of systems. > and are using the Open SuSE > OSS repo and I don't see php on it.

The two were never intended to co-exist. Second, there aren't ANY openSUSE RPMs for the mainframe available for SLES11. (That just _very_ recently changed for SLES12, and I'm not yet familiar enough with the whole setup to talk about it any detail.) If you're talking about x86_64 only, then reference the first point: bad idea. Still, to answer the question that was asked, if I do a "zypper se -s php" on an openSUSE 13.2 system, I get lots of hits coming from openSUSE-13.2-Oss (http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/13.2/repo/oss/) and openSUSE-13.2-Update (http://download.opensuse.org/update/13.2/).
