Unable to load module "oracleasm" in RH EL AS4

[Daniel]

Dear all,

I encounter problem during loading oraclease module in AS4, do anyone
encounter similar problem?


[***@fatdb init.d]# ./oracleasm configure
Configuring the Oracle ASM library driver.

This will configure the on-boot properties of the Oracle ASM library
driver. The following questions will determine whether the driver is
loaded on boot and what permissions it will have. The current values
will be shown in brackets ('[]'). Hitting <ENTER> without typing an
answer will keep that current value. Ctrl-C will abort.

Default user to own the driver interface [oracle]: oracle
Default group to own the driver interface [dba]: dba

What does lsmod show? Anything in /var/log/messages about why it will
not load?

Have you tried to load it manually using modprobe? Results?

Also, have you ensured that the asm kernel module you have installed
has been built for that exact kernel version?
