Get a beta driver using the Linux Backup Agent CLI

Server Backup allows you to compile a beta version of the kernel module and save it to the default /lib/modules/r1soft directory using the serverbackup-setup command. For more information about the serverbackup-setup command, see About the cdp-agent and serverbackup-setup tools.

To retrieve a beta driver: 

1. Run the serverbackup-setup command with the --beta option as follows:
   serverbackup-setup \--beta

   The system returns the following data:

   Checking for binary module Waiting No binary module found Gathering kernel information Gathering kernel information complete Creating kernel headers package Checking '/lib/modules/2.6.32-279.11.1.e16.x86_64/source/' for kernel headers Found headers in '/lib/modules/2.6.32-279.11.1.e16.x86_64/source/' Compressing... uploading kernel package                                                                               99% 5901KB    1.0MB/s     00:00 ETA Starting module build...

   Once the kernel module installation is complete, the system returns the following data:

   Saving kernel module to'/lib/modules/r1soft/hcpdriver-cki-2.6.32-279.11.1.e16.x86_64.ko' Kernel module is now installed. Use '/etc/init.d/cdp-agent restart' to load the new driver

2. Load the new driver using the following command:
   # /etc/init.d/cdp-agent restart
