Hi,
as my today innovation time I spend couple of hours with installing our new 
server in NUE. For access please see 
https://wiki.suse.net/index.php/YaST/team-it-infrastructure#Our_Servers ( 
internal only! ).

Few my notes I observe during it:

1. it uses BMC to initial access to machine. Java applet version with openJDK 
was disaster, HTML5 version works surprising well.
2. PXE in NUE works quite fine, it just needs tuning of kernel parameter.
3. installation without ssh was not possible. I am not sure what UI is picked, 
but it does not show anything in console. So I do ssh installation.
4. suggested ssh -X was quite slow. Probably ssh -XYC will be faster, but I do 
not try it.
5. System is SLE 15 SP2 and I picked system role KVM virtualization host and 
configuration looks reasonable.
6. partitioning needs tunning. It wants to use just one of SSD, but guided 
setup with using both disk and LVM create good proposal ( reasonable system and 
maximum /var/lib/libvirt for images )
7. I keep rest of defaults as it looks reasonable.


So what now? Current there are only my ssh keys, but I already ask infra team 
to add machine to their salt slaves and apply ssh for yast team members same as 
we have in prague server. connection via libvirt works well for me. No VM is 
there yet, but maybe we can migrate our german IBS workers.
