Hi All,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">We have a small test cluster that I am upgrading from GPFS 4.1.0.8 (efix21) to GPFS 4.2.0.2. I noticed that on 2 of my 3 NSD servers I received the following errors:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">
<div class="">/usr/lpp/mmfs/src</div>
<div class="">root@testnsd3# make InstallImages</div>
<div class="">(cd gpl-linux; /usr/bin/make InstallImages; \</div>
<div class="">exit $?) || exit 1 </div>
<div class="">make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/lpp/mmfs/src/gpl-linux'</div>
<div class="">Pre-kbuild step 1...</div>
<div class="">depmod: ERROR: fstatat(4, mmfs26.ko): No such file or directory</div>
<div class="">depmod: ERROR: fstatat(4, mmfslinux.ko): No such file or directory</div>
<div class="">depmod: ERROR: fstatat(4, tracedev.ko): No such file or directory</div>

<div class="">/usr/lpp/mmfs/src</div>
<div class="">root@testnsd3#</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">However, they don’t seem to actually impact anything … i.e. GPFS starts up just fine on the box and the upgrade is apparently successful:</div>

<div class="">So just to satisfy my own curiosity, has anyone else seen this and can anybody explain what that’s all about? OS is latest CentOS 7, BTW. Thanks…</div>
