Goal

 After Upgrading Exadata Software to 11.2.3.2.1 or later, the package megaraid_sas*.rpm is no longer installed.  Is it needed and if so, how do we re-install it.

Solution

This kernel module RPM package is not relevant and cannot be used by the 2.6.32-400.11.1 (or later) kernels that are now installed following the upgrade to 11.2.3.2.1 (or later).

Additionally, the fix for <bug 14790278> is included in the 2.6.32-400.11.1 (or later), which includes the megaraid_sas module in it's module tree:

Therefore, there is no need for a package to provide an out of tree megaraid_sas module.

The removal of the megaraid_sas-2.6.18-274.18.1.0.1.el5 (or lateer) RPM will have no negative impact on your system.

The missing RPM can be ignored.
