2008-02-25 13:33:13,056 WARNING: plugin s390.py does not install, skipping
2008-02-25 13:33:13,056 WARNING: could not load plugin s390.py 
</snip>
  
Actual results:

Either no data is collected for s390 or if using the upstream plugin, the plugin
fails to load and is skipped.


Expected results:
capture s390 information.

Additional info:
I have created a plugin that works and a patch that updates the non-working version.

Patch, when applied to upstream version of sos/plugins/s390.py will create a working version.
Comment 2 Adam Stokes 2008-02-26 14:08:03 UTC 
The upstream version does work. It is just the fact that you are using an
upstream plugin with a shipped version of sosreport that tries to access a
function not yet released. In this case policyredhat getArch.

Ive committed some of the patch mainly the ones that we aren't capturing yet.

Please verify by downloading the _entire_ upstream trunk and testing against
both RHEL4 and RHEL5.

Thank you
