Starting PowerPath: PowerPath could not load module emcp

Error loading PowerPath kernel modules

    Hi hudsterboy - the reason the kernel 3.10.0-862.* fails is that it is included with RHEL 7.5 release, which is not supported on PowerPath 6.3 for Linux. For RHEL 7.5 support you will need PowerPath 6.4 for Linux, which is due out later this month.

    Hi Drew - you can check the E-Lab Navigator  to see if your specific configuration is supported before you upgrade

    And, the PowerPath 6.4 for Linux release is out now, check out: https://support.emc.com/products/1742_PowerPath-for-Linux for more information and downloads
