It's the second time I see this today ^_^. It's not needed to recompile:
"
When using RAID storage configured with Logical Unit Numbers (LUNs)
greater than zero, it is necessary to enable LUN support by adding the
following entry to the /etc/modules.conf file:
options scsi_mod max_scsi_luns=255
After modifying modules.conf, it is necessary to rebuild the initial
ramdisk using 'mkinitrd'. Refer to The Official Red Hat Linux
Customization Guide for more information about creating the ramdisk
image with mkinitrd.
"
That's from http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/notes/as/
