   An update that has three recommended fixes can now be
   installed.

Description:

   This update for s390-tools fixes the following issues:

   - Fixed an issue with an incorrect output from the 'dasdfmt' command when
     *not* using "YaST mode". (bsc#1182816, bsc#1182820)
   - If more DASD volumes are to be formatted than are allowed by the
     "maximum number to do in parallel" parameter, dasdfmt waits until one of
     the child processes ends before starting another. For YaST to be able to
     figure out how many cylinders a particular DASD volume has, that
     information has to be output for all of the volumes, before any of the
     child processes are spawned. (bsc#1187012)
