DLKM

[Bob Manocchia]

I'm trying to install a product TDMF and I receive the following error from swinstall:

kmmodreg: Could not obtain the boot kernel path |
| kmupdate: Module migdriver registration failed. |
| ERROR: DLKM configuration failed.

Any ideas what I can do. Do I need to regen the kernel and try to install this again.

Thanks

Without any more details it looks like this TDMF product had kernel filesets to add in swinstall and those kernel filesets for some reason can not be loaded in the kernel.

Check your version support matrix of the TDMF software and look the detailed listing in swinstall of the filesets you are attempting to install.

I've successfully installed tdmf on serveral other servers (pa_risc and itanium) with no problems. It looks like the problem is particular to this server. I was told to do the following:

# cd /stand/build
# mk_kernel -s ../system
# kmupdate
# cd /
# shutdown -r

I'm going to follow that advice and see if I can install this cleanly.

Thanks

Bob,
Your response to this post said you had installed TDMF previously. Have you used it with HP-UX 11.11, in a cluster environment, to do EMC array migrations? We did not have any issues installing the product but when we try to do a tdmf create, it causes our node to crash. We have tried this on a non-clustered node with success. On the cluster nodes, we have tried the create with the cluster down and it caused a crash. We have tried it with clustered volumes and non-clustered volumes and all our tests have caused the node to crash. We have tried this on different platforms (SuperDome and Lclass) with the same results. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!

The problem with the tdmf create causing our servers to crash was corrected by updating from TDMF 3.1.0 to TDM 3.1.2.
Hopefully this will help someone else in the future :-).

Thanks. This was solved.
