Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

Beginning with the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform release 4.4.9, the NVIDIA Operator no longer functions as expected.

When the pod tries to create the needed kernel module, the following error may occur:

4.4.11 nvidia-driver-daemonset
---
+ echo 'Installing Linux kernel headers...'
+ dnf -q -y install kernel-headers-4.18.0-147.20.1.el8_1.x86_64 kernel-devel-4.18.0-147.20.1.el8_1.x86_64
Error: Unable to find a match: kernel-headers-4.18.0-147.20.1.el8_1.x86_64 kernel-devel-4.18.0-147.20.1.el8_1.x86_64
