[Lustre-discuss] modules missing during patched kernel install, RAID card not detected
I just ran the kernel-lustre...rpm on a fresh CentOS 5, x86_64 install, and it misses modules. # rpm -ivh kernel-lustre-smp-2.6.18-92.1.17.el5_lustre.1.6.7.1.x86_64.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:kernel-lustre-smp ########################################### [100%] WARNING: No module dm-mem-cache found for kernel 2.6.18-92.1.17.el5_lustre.1.6.7.1smp, continuing anyway WARNING: No module dm-region_hash found for kernel 2.6.18-92.1.17.el5_lustre.1.6.7.1smp, continuing anyway WARNING: No module dm-message found for kernel 2.6.18-92.1.17.el5_lustre.1.6.7.1smp, continuing anyway WARNING: No module dm-raid45 found for kernel 2.6.18-92.1.17.el5_lustre.1.6.7.1smp, continuing anyway When I installed CentOS on this host, it was via kickstart, and I had to add this line to get the RAID working: driverdisk --source=http://......./files/3ware/3ware_9690_centos_5.2_64.img So I''m assuming this patched lustre kernel doesn''t support the 3ware 9690SA RAID card natively and that''s why it''s missing these modules when I install the RPM. Is that correct? How can I get the patched kernel to recognize my RAID card? Do I need to add the modules from my current kernel into the lustre kernel and/or make a new initrd? Thanks for any help!
