Add drivers for stateless provisioning templates

By default, the initrd.img files contains a limited set of drivers for stateless images only. The limited set of drivers can cause problems when provisioning nodes. To avoid these problems, add the required drivers to the stateless provisioning templates.

Before you begin

Note: IBM® Spectrum Cluster Foundation Community Edition does not support adding drivers to Ubuntu stateless image profiles.

Procedure

Get the list of drivers for the hardware you want to provision as stateless.
Check whether there are any dependencies among the kernel module by using the Linux modinfo command. These dependencies must be selected in the Kernel Modules tab in step 5.
```
# modinfo igb
```
```
filename: /lib/modules/2.6.18-164.el5/kernel/drivers/net/igb/igb.ko 
version: 2.1.9 
... 
depends: dca,8021q 
... 
```
In the Web Portal, select the Resources tab, Node Provisioning > Provisioning Templates > Image Profiles.
Select the stateless image profile that you want to use and click Modify.
Select the Kernel Modules tab, and check that the kernel modules are selected.
Click OK to apply the changes.
