[Linux-cluster] How to find out what kernel version current GFS rpm is compiled against?

[Riaan van Niekerk]

hi RR

you have a couple of options:

1 (assuming you have a valid GFS subscription) in RHN under the "File 
List" for a specific package will it list the files contained in the 
package. your version of GFS installs into
/lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp/kernel/fs/gfs

2 If you have the package downloaded, a rpm -qpl \
   GFS-kernel-smp-2.6.9-60.3.i686.rpm
will also show you what the relevant kernel version is.

Unfortunately there is no single reference for which versions of the 
kernel modules for GFS, GNBD, dlm and cman go with which kernel version. 
I have suggested this to RH as a knowledge base article.
