Hi Alan/Cobbler buddies,
I have a situation, where in I need to inject a specific "hpvsa" RAID driver in 
the cobbler ks. I tried the below, but does not work. Appreciate if you can let 
me know how to do this correctly and make it work.

Use case:
- HP physical blade with B210i RAID controller, that needs the hpvsa driver 
loaded prior to kickstart
- Need to load RHEL7 on this server with the RAID controller on it

What had been tried so far:

- I had tried to do add "driverdisk --source=http://...../";, and have the 
hpvsa.iso/img file hosted on the http link, but would not work [RHEL7 OS load 
completes, and at the post-install step errors out "bootloader install 
failed"]. 

- The bootloader statement in ks is - bootloader --location=mbr 
--driveorder=sda --append="crashkernel=auto notsc rdblacklist=ahci 
rdloaddriver=hpvsa,hpsa"

- I tried to add the hpvsa rpm package to my RHEL7 repository [imported via 
cobbler import], by copying the package, and adding the statement "kmod-hpvsa" 
to the %packages section in ks. While loading the packages, kmod-hpvsa package 
not found is displayed 

- I also tried to copy the rpm kmod-hpvsa and the repodata associated with it, 
to my RHEL7 repository, still the same error "kmod-hpvsa package not found"

Please let me know.

Thanks

Providing feedback to the Cobbler mailing list...
Murali posted on the bug that iLo fence agents work fine, this was simply a 
firewall issue.
