13. If you are installing PowerPath for the first time, or if you are
upgrading from PowerPath 4.0.1 or earlier, reboot the server with
reboot -- -r.
If you are upgrading from PowerPath 4.0.2 or later, you need not reboot
the host after you install PowerPath 4.3. However, you must shut down
all applications before you install PowerPath 4.3. Therefore, if the host
boots off a PowerPath pseudo device, you must reboot after the upgrade.
If the sd or ssd driver does not exist on the server, you see one of
the following messages during boot:
WARNING: forceload of drv/sd failed
or
WARNING: forceload of drv/ssd failed
You can safely ignore this warning.
