According to http://elrepo.org/tiki/DeviceIDs you should run "lspci -n | grep 
'03:00.0' " and then search for the vendor:device ID pair .

 there are instructions (and link to video) about dud and how to use it.
A link to the dud images: https://elrepo.org/linux/dud/el8/x86_64/

As previously mentioned you might need

In my case the DUD files didn't work (due to kernel version mismatch) on a 
couple of R710 (megaraid) and Generic-Intel-Xeon (isci SATA).
As such, I use the manual path:
- On a machine (or VM) running the latest CentOS 8 kernel:
* Download the relevant DUD source RPMs 
(https://elrepo.org/linux/elrepo/el8/SRPMS/) and unpack them. (E.g. 
https://elrepo.org/linux/elrepo/el8/SRPMS/kmod-megaraid_sas-07.717.02.00-1.el8_5.elrepo.src.rpm)
* From the module directory, manually build the missing kernel drivers by hand. 
(if you don't know what to do, follow the commands in the %build segment in the 
DUD spec file) and save the resulting .ko kernel modules (E.g. megaraid_sas.ko, 
isci.ko, etc).
- Start the machine(s) using the CentOS8 stream installation USB. Wait for the 
first screen but *don't* do anything.
- Switch to a console (Ctrl-Alt-F1).
- Start the network and scp the newly built kernel modules into 
/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/extra
- Load the newly copied kernel module using insmod. (E.g. insmod 
/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/extra/megaraid_sas.ko)
- Check the kernel log (via dmesg) and make sure the storage controller has 
initialized correctly.
- Switch back to the anaconda installer (Ctrl-Alt-F6 or F7).
- Continue installation as usual. *
(* I think I had to manually copy the kernel module to the newly installed 
machine, and dracut -f to get it included in the initramfs image, but I'm not 
certain).

Hii 
The resulf after running "lspci -n | grep '03:00.0' is 03:00.0 1000:0060 pci 
RAID bus controller: Broadcom / LSI MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04)
Which says the driver is kmod-megaraid_sas 
I tried https://elrepo.org/linux/dud/el8/x86_64/dd-megaraid_sas-07.717.02.00... 
 But it says "modprobe: ERROR: Could not insert 'megaraid-sas' : Invalid 
argument.

Also I tried below DUD also

dd-megaraid_mbox-2.20.5.1-2.el8_1.elrepo.iso
dd-megaraid_mbox-2.20.5.1-3.el8_2.elrepo.iso
dd-megaraid_mbox-2.20.5.1-4.el8_3.elrepo.iso
dd-megaraid_mbox-2.20.5.1-5.el8_4.elrepo.iso
dd-megaraid_mbox-2.20.5.1-6.el8_5.elrepo.iso
dd-megaraid_sas-07.707.50.00-1.el8_0.elrepo.iso
dd-megaraid_sas-07.707.51.00-1.el8_1.elrepo.iso

dd-megaraid_sas-07.717.02.00-1.el8_5.elrepo.iso

but all give the same error.

I am checking the mega SAS drivers from elrepo one by one but it is getting

confused with which driver will support my controller

hereafter running lspci command in centos 7


[root@localhost riyaz]# lspci | grep RAID
03:00.0 RAID bus controller: Broadcom / LSI MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04)
[root@localhost riyaz]# lspci -k -s 03:00.0

what might be the correct elrepo driver for this??

I have a Dell PowerEdge 710 server with SAS RAID 1   PERC 6/i, I am trying to 
install ovirt 4.4 but I could not find the destination disk. in the destination 
disk page, it is only showing my USB bootable device only. probably this might 
be SAS RAID diver error, if so how can i load driver during the installation.
