RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2011:0523 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE dracut bug fix and enhancement update 2011-05-18 17:44:57 UTC

Description Ales Kozumplik 2011-04-01 06:37:33 UTC 
see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=442980#c44.

A person testing bnx partial offload iscsi complains the drivers are missing from dracut. I checked and the following drivers:

bnx2
bnx2x
bnx2i

are indeed not mentioned in the 'installkernel' dracut-network's iscsi module.

Could those be added?

workaround:

# echo "add_drivers+=" bnx2 bnx2x bnx2i "  >> /etc/dracut.conf.d/bnx.conf
# dracut -f

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2011-04-04 02:11:57 UTC 
Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Comment 5 Ales Kozumplik 2011-04-04 06:24:31 UTC 
PM,

I am proposing this as a blocker since it blocks QA on the bug 442980.
Comment 9 Alexander Todorov 2011-04-27 10:51:17 UTC 
# rpm -q dracut-network
dracut-network-004-52.el6.noarch

# rpm -q dracut-network -l | xargs grep bnx2
/usr/share/dracut/modules.d/95iscsi/installkernel:instmods iscsi_tcp crc32c iscsi_ibft be2iscsi bnx2 bnx2x bnx2i


bnx2, bnx2x and bnx2i are now present.
