    Posted Mon August 02, 2021 11:35 PM
    HI Everyone,

    Need help urgently. I can see only RHEL Supported version 8 in the website (https://www.securitylearningacademy.com/mod/data/view.php?id=19457&mode=&search=&advanced=1)But What about RHEL 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 & 8.4? Does it Supports?
    Kernel for RHEL 8.3 & 8.4 (4.18.0-240.15.1.el8_3.x86_64, 4.18.0-305.3.1.el8_4.x86_64) and getting below error.
    Even I am not able to filter with Version 11.3 in Guardium Version section.
    Please do the needful.



    Thanks,
    Panendar Rao.C

    You will need to pull down the latest STAP, version r110195, as well as apply the latest KTAP - Guardium_KTAP_11.3_rhel-8-linux-x86-64_r110195_2021-07-27.
    It works best to install the STAP with KTAP_ENABLED=0. Once it is successful, then apply the KTAP with KTAP_ENABLE=1 along with KTAP_ALLOW_MODULE_COMBOS=Y and KTAP_LIVE_UPDATE=Y

    Hi Everyone,

    Thanks for all of your answers.
    I have one general question. Regularly we install GIM & STAP version with parameters below:
    STAP_ENABLED - 1
    KTAP_ENABLED - 1
    KTAP_LIVE_UPDATE - Y
    KTAP_ALLOW_MODULE_COMBOS - Y.

    But the kernel I can see in excel sheet shows like this:
    If it is Flex, How should i install GIM & STAP? More over, the database running on this OS is MySQL and MSSQL server.
    please suggest.


    Thanks,
    Panendar Rao.C

    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/guardium/11.3?topic=tap-linux-unix-gim-s-installation-parameters

    Flex load is controlled by KTAP_ALLOW_MODULE_COMBOS so if you have that set to Y then you have flex loading enabled.
