Ensure zIPL bootmap is up to date
An XCCDF Rule
Description
Make sure that /boot/bootmap is up to date.
Every time a boot entry or zIPL configuration is changed /boot/bootmap needs to
be updated to reflect the changes.
Run zipl command to generate an updated /boot/bootmap.
Rationale
The file /boot/bootmap contains all boot data, keeping it up to date is crucial to
boot correct kernel and options.
