On the new Supermicro blade servers they have an embedded Adaptec RAID feature. The drivers are at:
ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/driver/SATA/Adaptec_ICH9R/Linux/177 11/
If you are trying to install the .img driver (for example the adptahci.rhel5qu3.x86_64.img file) into OpenVZ so that you can query the status of the RAID array from the command-line, what is the procedure? In other words, to install a device driver that is not in the OpenVZ kernel what do you do? I know how to get the .img file onto a floppy and use linux dd but I don't know how this would differ when installing OpenVZ onto a virgin CentOS 5.3 installation.
I notice there is a .rpm file there also (not just the .img) but I get errors when I do an rpm-Uvh on that file while OpenVZ kernel (stab62.x) is running.
Thanks,
