A quick HOWTO wiki
ClearCase module rebuild after intalling a new kernel. LINUX only!!!
First you need to make sure you have the matching kernel-dev or kernel-source package on the system and have rebooted to the new kernel. After this you begin to rebuild the kernel modules as follows.
Stop Clearcase.
> sudo /etc/init.d/clearcase stop
Change directory to the rational source directory.
> cd /var/adm/rational/clearcase/mvfs/vnode_src/
Do a "make clean" this deletes previously created binaries. This will prompt you for the modules src build directory and should pick up the default for the running kernel. You can verify this with "uname -a". Be sure you have rebooted to the new kernel before you build the modules.
> sudo make clean
Makefile:99: vnode_param.mk.config: No such file or directory
cd . && /opt/rational/clearcase/install/kernel_guess
Enter path to your toplevel kernel source directory.
Default is [/lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp/build]:[ENTER]
User specified:Linux source directory: /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp/build
rm -rf *.o *.kobj *.obj *.ko *.mod.? .*.cmd .tmp_versions
rm -f vnode_param.mk.config
>
The next step is to verify the configuration parameters for the kernel. This matches the installed kernel config from the /usr/src/kernel directory and should have no errors or changes.
> sudo make vnode_param.mk.config
Makefile:99: vnode_param.mk.config: No such file or directory
cd . && /opt/rational/clearcase/install/kernel_guess
Enter path to your toplevel kernel source directory.
Default is [/lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp/build]:[ENTER]
User specified:Linux source directory: /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp/build
make: `vnode_param.mk.config' is up to date.
>
Now that we have done the config, we need to build the modules with "make".
> sudo make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp/build SUBDIRS=`pwd`

Assuming the build went well, now do a "make install" to put the modules in the proper place for the kernel.
> sudo make install
mkdir -p /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/fs/mvfs
install --backup --suffix=.save vnode.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/fs/mvfs/vnode.ko
install --backup --suffix=.save mvfs.kobj /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/fs/mvfs/mvfs.ko

In these instances we have seen some problem with automount, so restart it to make sure that /net works correctly.
> sudo /etc/init.d/autofs restart
Stopping automount: [ OK ]
Starting automount: [ OK ]
>
Finally start Clearcase, if all goes well you are done.
> sudo /etc/init.d/clearcase start
