fboss issue on fresh install of ONL

[Jeremy Huylebroeck]

It seems fboss doesn't install OpenNSL as expected on my freshly installed ONL / Wedge40 setup.

Anybody experiencing this?

root@tor8:~# service fboss_wedge_agent start

[ ok eating devices .

but I see opennsl in the packages installed though

opennsl-w40/unknown,now 6.4.6.6-1 amd64 [installed]

Hi Jeremy,

I have not updated the opennsl-w40 package for the new kernel, also the OpenNSL on broadcom's github page is compiled against the 3.16.39 kernel.  I have uploaded the kernel modules compiled against the 3.16.53 kernel, you should be able to put them in the /lib/modules/3.16.53-OpenNetworkLinux directory.  http://opennetlinux.org/binaries/OpenNSL/kernel-mods-6.4.6.6-3.16.53.tar

Let me know if that works.

it seems to do the trick!

Thanks Steve.

Should I avoid using the latest ONL release? is it too bleeding edge typically?

[Steven Noble]

It's not too bleeding edge, but CPU issues caused us to update the kernel and I have not done anything with the FBOSS code in a while.  I will update the OpenNSL package in a bit.  Are you using FBOSS for anything specific?

Planning to use fboss only for testing basic connectivity and simple routing configuration. To get a hand of the system.

But I will move to Frr and BGP as soon as I verify cabling is working to the existing spines and I know where everything has to be configured in ONL.

I have updated both the wedge40 and wedge100 packages with kernel modules for 3.16.53 for OpenNSL.

I guess you can discard my previous message.

I needed more coffee this morning...
