DLKM not initialized?

Error in syslog:

vmunix: WARNING: modpath: DLKM is not initialized

What do I need to do to get this error not to show up? I don't know where this error is coming from or what causes this error. Can someone shed some light?

Thanks,
Denise

Re: DLKM not initialized?


Hi,

This could be due to current version of Kernel is not matching with symbolic table smtab.

Have a look at the follwoing link

Re: DLKM not initialized?

Hi Denise,

You need to recompile your kernel and reboot to get rid of this message.

Backup /stand/system and /stand/vmunix

#/usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep -s /stand/system
#mk_kernel -o /stand/vmunix
#kmupdate
#shutdown -r now (no reboot)

Re: DLKM not initialized?

Hi

Normally this error indicates that the current
version of the kernel does not match the current
version of the symbol table symtab in /stand/dlkm.

to solve the problem .

1. cd /stand/build

2. /usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep -s system

3. mk_kernel -s system

4. kmupdate /stand/build/vmunix_test

5. shutdown -r 0

Note: Do not use reboot

HI
Rebuild the kernel either using SAM or manually
If you build kernel mannually, run the kmupdate command before rebooting the system.

Thanks.

Take it as it comes.

Re: DLKM not initialized?


I guess the kernel was modified recently and kmupdate command was not run?

The best way to sort this out would be to redo the kernel change using SAM. That takes care of all the steps involved.
