  • Updating Rhel 6.8 error (kmod-cnic)

    Posted on

    Hello,
    I am quite new, please ask for more info if I forget something...
    I have error during yum update:

    Error: Package: kmod-cnic-2.5.10.32.269-1.el6_2.x86_64 (installed)
    Requires: kmod-bnx2x = 1.72.00_0.32.269
    Removing: kmod-bnx2x-1.72.00_0.32.269-1.el6_2.x86_64 (installed)
    kmod-bnx2x = 1.72.00_0.32.269-1.el6_2
    Updated By: kmod-bnx2x-1.712.30_0-1.el6_7.x86_64 (ps_core-patch-2017-2-rhel-x86_64-server-6)
    kmod-bnx2x = 1.712.30_0-1.el6_7
    Available: kmod-bnx2x-1.70.00_0.1-9.el6_1.x86_64 (ps_core-patch-2017-2-rhel-x86_64-server-6)
    kmod-bnx2x = 1.70.00_0.1-9.el6_1
    Available: kmod-bnx2x-1.72.00_0-1.el6_2.x86_64 (ps_core-patch-2017-2-rhel-x86_64-server-6)
    kmod-bnx2x = 1.72.00_0-1.el6_2
    You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
    You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

    I belive nothing uses them, e.g.:
    [root@iumdbtestflo01 tomas]# lsmod | grep -e 'Used by' -e 'bnx2x'
    Module Size Used by
    bnx2x 502712 0
    libcrc32c 1246 2 sctp,bnx2x
    mdio 4769 1 bnx2x
    [root@iumdbtestflo01 tomas]# lspci | egrep -i --color 'network|ethernet'

    0a:04.1 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5715S Gigabit Ethernet (rev a3)

    i ask for advice on how to solve this error.
    Thanks
