You can see the following error messages during installation of r1soft agent on CentOS 7. It happens when you try to get module installed.
When you try to install server backup device driver by using yum command it might fail. The CDP agent has been installed successfully but hcpdriver module that is required to run backups is missing. Agent cannot run without hcpdriver.
The command serverbackup-setup --get-module or r1soft-setup --get-module fails when you attempt to install the kernel module.
You can see the error message displayed below.
