2.2. Testing the SRR Module

SRR Module : The srripc Linux Kernel Module, Version 1.4.43
	Chapter 2. Installation

We recommend testing the SRR Module before installing it, by following this procedure:

Ensure you are root, and change to the srr-x.x.x/mod/ subdirectory.
```
# cd mod/
```

Issue the make command:

# make load

If this fails (sometimes in non-RedHat installations), you can load the module manually by issuing the insmod command:

/sbin/insmod srripc.o

If the manual load or the make load command fail with undefined symbols, go back to the srr-x.x.x/ directory and issue the make commands:

# cd ../
# make clean
# make FORCESYMBOLS=n

Once the module is loaded, change to the srr-x.x.x/test/ subdirectory and issue the following make command:
```
# cd ../test/
# make linux
```

The test could take as long as 3 minutes to complete, and the results should look something like this:
