Recipes
default
This recipe expects node[:kernel_modules] to be of the form:
{
raid10: :install,
raid456: :uninstall,
ntfs: :blacklist
}
and performs the actions specified on the modules listed, so you can specify modules to load/unload entirely from a role-file.
Attributes
General
-
['kernel_modules']- Hash of modules to perform actions on using the default recipe.
Resources
kernel_module
This resource allows you to manage kernel modules.
Actions
-
:install: loads the module immediately, adds an entry to/etc/modprobe.dto ensure it loads on boot, and updates the initramfs. -
:uninstall: unloads the module immediately, removes the configuration entry, and updates the initrams. -
:blacklist: unloads the module immediately, and adds a configuration file to blacklist the module. -
:load: loads the module immediately. -
:unload: unloads the module immediately.
Examples
Permanently load the zfs module:
kernel_module 'zfs'
Unload just the raid10 module:
kernel_module 'raid10' do action :unload end
