problem with APA installing

chyaroslav — Thu, 12 Apr 2007 05:09:11 GMT

A have tried to install APA on my rx4640 and i recieved following error in swinstall :
The module 'fcd' depends on a module 'libfcd_pdk' which is not
installed on the system.
ERROR: The command "/usr/sbin/mk_kernel", which is used to rebuild
the kernel, has failed. Because kernel-related filesets were
installed, this command must be executed by "swinstall",
without failures, before the load can continue. Check the
above output for details about the failure.

Hi chyaroslav ,

As you had described that the module 'libfcd_pdk' which is not
installed on the system.First of all you need to install the required libfcd_pdk library pack in your system.Because this pack is not installed on u r system this error is coming during kernel reconfiguration.

Shalom,

There are libraries missing on your system and APA can't be compiled into the kernel.

Either you have not installed pre-requisites and are attempting to override or some files have been manually deleted.

You may be able to get the necessary files from another system.

What is the exact syntax of swinstall that you are using?

APA does not directly require fcd or libfcd_pdk.
I suspect the system was manually modified in some way.

Even without swinstall, if you just run mk_kernel command, it would fail.

So, this is not related to installing APA or any kernel software for that matter.

You may want to fix this first.

Hope this helps.

Try running swverify -v \* to see if your fiber channel driver install is corrupt.

You can probably fix it by removing and re-installing the driver.

That library is part of FC-FCD which is contained in the A6826A Fibre Channel driver (available from www.software.hp.com).

The problem has nothing to do with APA, it was just waiting to crop up the next time the kernel was re-built for any reason.
