Hi All,

I am having a Vmware server with RHEL 4 U5 and i am trying to install vxvm in it and i am getting the following error:

 

[root@bathija12 rpms]# rpm -ivh VRTSvxvm-common-4.1.20.00-MP2_RHEL4.i686.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
This package is not built for athlon processors. Exiting.
error: %pre(VRTSvxvm-common-4.1.20.00-MP2_RHEL4.i686) scriptlet failed, exit status 1
error:   install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping VRTSvxvm-common-4.1.20.00-MP2_RHEL4
[root@bathija12 rpms]#

 


the specific error is "This package is not built for athlon processors. Exiting."

Please advice on this like what should i do to install this package on the RHEL server. your help is very much appreciated.

Hi Bathija, This is not supported on this CPU.  It is only Supported on Opteron Processors.  Please visit this site to find out more on what is Supported and some tools to help you avoid pre-installation issues:

http://vias.syamantec.com  you can download a data collector and run this on your system and get a detailed report or you can use the General Checklist.

 

Thanks,
