Updating modules after a kernel update

 

Revised on January 15, 2014

 

After completing setup of this product on system, if the kernel version is updated in system, you may be required to re-setup the snapshot and mount drivers.
The following two methods can be used.

Note:
For kernels that have been updated after the release date of this product, you may need a module that is not available any more.
If a module that matches the kernel is not available, please contact NetJapan's technical support.

Online Update

You can update the snapshot or mount drivers online.
Run the following commands in the console.

# aipmng --modupdate { --all | --mount | --snapshot | --patches}

The following table provides you with the overview of the options:

Local Update

You can update the snapshot or mount drivers from a local path.
Run the following commands in the console.
The modules for update should be located at "<custom path>/drivers”.
