D.2 Create Custom Drivers Using the Migrate Agent Utility

If your Linux source workload is registered to the PlateSpin Migrate Server using the PlateSpin Migrate Agent Utility, run the driver-install command to automatically install the custom drivers on your source workload.

When you run the driver-install command, the utility checks if precompiled drivers for the kernel running on your Linux workload are available. If no precompiled drivers match the source workload kernel, the utility automatically compiles the required drivers and installs them on the source workload.

The folder that contains the custom driver is named based on the following naming convention: CustomKernel-<Kernel_Release_String>-<Kernel_Architecture>. The utility then uploads the custom drivers to the PlateSpin Server library. See driver-install <server> [-pr <your-proxy-server-url>] For server, specify the DNS name or IP address of your PlateSpin Migrate server..
