Hi: I am mafish using the Lustre-1.2.4 and Suse SLES 9 RC5 (kernel 2.6.5) Several patching issues occurred during the Lustre installing, and I fixed them by manually modify the code according the .patch file. Here lists the patching files updated: /usr/mafish/lustre-1.2.4/kernel_patches/patches/iopen-2.6-suse.patch /usr/mafish/lustre-1.2.4/kernel_patches/patches/export_symbols-ext3-2.6-suse.patch and the manually patched files: /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.97/include/linux/ext3_fs.h /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.97/fs/ext3/inode.c /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.97/fs/ext3/iopen.h /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.97/fs/ext3/iopen.c /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.97/fs/ext3/super.c /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.97/fs/ext3/namei.c But the fsfilt_ext3 module could not be found when I running a "lconf" dell-162:/usr/mafish/lustre-1.2.4/tests # ../utils/lconf --reformat local.xml loading module: portals srcdir ../utils/../portals devdir libcfs loading module: ksocknal srcdir ../utils/../portals devdir knals/socknal loading module: lvfs srcdir ../utils/.. devdir lvfs loading module: obdclass srcdir ../utils/.. devdir obdclass loading module: ptlrpc srcdir ../utils/.. devdir ptlrpc loading module: ost srcdir ../utils/.. devdir ost loading module: fsfilt_ext3 srcdir ../utils/.. devdir lvfs module not found: fsfilt_ext3 I am using the following configuration for Lustre: # ./configure --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.97 Any suggestion is appreciated!
