HP StorageWorks Clustered File System 3.1.1 for Linux Installation Guide (May 2006)

Appendix A: Install the SLES9 Operating System and Kernel 46
NOTE: Do not change the CONFIG_CFGNAME parameter in your
configuration file. Clustered File System requires that the
default value be used. Also, if you are using a configuration
file that was not supplied in the Support RPM, be sure that the
following parameter is set to yes. This parameter enables the
Linux
SCSI subsystem to probe for LUNs on SAN devices.
CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y
3. If you will be installing FS Option, patch the kernel configuration file
that you copied in step 2. To begin, go to the following directory,
where <Version> is the version of the kernel that you are about to
compile.
/usr/src/polyserve/<Version>/tools
Now run the following command to patch the .config file:
# ./patch_config mxfs_patchlist /usr/src/linux/.config
NOTE:
Do not attempt to apply the 90_mxfs.patch file. This patch file
was already applied when you installed the MxFS-Linux
patches RPM earlier in this procedure.
4. Complete the kernel configuration and build the kernel. From the
/usr/src/linux directory, run the following commands:
# make oldconfig
# make bzImage
# make modules
# make modules_install
5. Install the kernel:
# make install
This step creates the ramdisk image. The image will not include the
modules that you removed earlier from the
INITRD_MODULES
directive in the /etc/sysconfig/kernel file.
This step also modifies the default grub or lilo configuration. If you
are not using the default configuration, update your configuration as
necessary to ensure that the right kernel is selected.
6. Reboot the system and verify that the correct kernel is being used.
