[elrepo] Announcement: EL5 Updated kmod-ixgbe Release [3.11.33]

[Alan Bartlett]

Announcing the release of updated kmod-ixgbe packages into the EL5
elrepo repository:

http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-ixgbe

This package provides an updated ixgbe driver, version 3.11.33, and is
kABI compatible with all kernels from 5.4 (kernel-2.6.18-164.el5)
upwards.

It is built to depend upon the specific ABI provided by a range of
releases of the same variant of the Linux kernel and not on any one
specific build.

The following files are currently syncing to the mirrors:

x86
kmod-ixgbe-3.11.33-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm
kmod-ixgbe-PAE-3.11.33-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm
kmod-ixgbe-xen-3.11.33-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm

x86_64
kmod-ixgbe-3.11.33-1.el5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm
kmod-ixgbe-xen-3.11.33-1.el5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm

src
ixgbe-kmod-3.11.33-1.el5.elrepo.src.rpm

You may update your system by:

yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=elrepo update kmod-ixgbe

Once the package has been updated, remember to unload the old driver
before loading the newer version into the kernel:

/sbin/ifdown ethN
/sbin/modprobe -r ixgbe
/sbin/modprobe ixgbe
/sbin/ifup ethN

Thank you,

The ELRepo Team.
