I'm getting a lot of these in /var/log/messages (in this case, from the hpacucli utility):
my-vmware modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-10-220
Is there a (safe) way I can create/install these missing modules? It's cluttering up my log needlessly, yet I want to be sure I don't mess up my system.
Thanks.
Hello,
I'm getting a lot of these in /var/log/messages (in this case, from the hpacucli utility):
Do not run hpacucli unless you are going to use it.
my-vmware modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-10-220
Run the following as well
echo "alias char-major-10-220 off" >> /etc/modules.conf

You can not install modules not already blessed by VMware. This one is looking for HP specific hardware it can not find as the vmkernel does not allow it to access it. The command above will stop the messages from appearing.

Well, I need it. Since I'm running ESX on a whitebox, I'm not getting a SNMP (test) trap from the HP Insight Manager (probably because, indeed, I miss half the HP hardware). Hpacucli, however, allows me to poll the status of the disks in the RAID. I used this link:

Seems to be working fine.

Well, that was easily fixed. Thanks!
