PowerPath 5.1 on RHEL 4 u6, does not start
Hi all,
This is a Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 6)/ELlargesmp kernel, I am able to download EMCPower.LINUX.5.1.0.Patch.b194.tar.gz and install EMCpower.LINUX-5.1.0-194.rhel.x86_64.rpm successfully.
However when trying to start the service I get the following error:
# service PowerPath start
Starting PowerPath: This package requires RedHat RHEL4.
failed
System output:
# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 6)
# uname -a
Linux hostname 2.6.9-67.ELlargesmp #1 SMP Wed Nov 7 14:07:22 EST 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I guess this may be some weird error when trying to get the service started, if so... is there any patch/modification available to get it working properly? Also, the /etc/modprobe.conf file is not being modified as it should, there is no /etc/modprobe.conf.pp file around.
Thank you.

include /etc/modprobe.conf.pp

is it safe to assume that you ran "rpm -ivh EMCpower.LINUX-5.1.0-194.rhel5.x86_64.rpm" as root ?

It might be that /etc/issue no longer says it's a redhat box. I just had support figure this one out for my install.
