Openvz and emc SAN [message #30080]

We've successfully installed openvz on centos 4.6 and it works great. We're now trying to attach the hp fiber card to a EMC SAN system. We are having problems installing the fiber card driver.
When I execute the install script I get:

Emulex LPFC Driver Installer Version 3032
Determining distribution type and kernel version ...
Checking for Emulex LPFCDFC driver packages ...
Checking for old Emulex driver ...
Looking for kernel development package ...
Looking for compilers ...

RPM cannot be installed: ovzkernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-023stab046.2 package is required.

Is there a devel kernel package available?
Thanks for you help
steven

Nobody know anything about a kernel-smp-devel package for OpenVZ?

Steven,
it looks like driver build script issue:

devel package in rhel5-based kernels contains the Makefilea and headers required for build of third-party modules.
But 2.6.9 is rhel4-based, it does not have devel package beacuse of Makefiles and headers are already included into kernel RPM -- and it enogh for build of any third party modules.

Also I would like to ask you -- lpfc driver is already present in this kernel (it was compiled into kernel, not as module) and should work well. Could you please explain -- why you want to build new driver? Are you tried to use old one?

thank you,
Vasily Averin
