Will lustre-1.5.95 build with 2.6.18-vanilla kernel? Which_patch doesn''t contain this kernel but I could see them in the series files. Do somebody have experience in building the same? I tried to do it but lot of errors after applying the patches in 2.6.18-vanilla series. Thanks, Venkat

This is a VERY OLD BETA. Instead, use lustre-1.6.4.2. Cheers, Andreas -- Andreas Dilger Sr. Staff Engineer, Lustre Group Sun Microsystems of Canada, Inc.
I understand, but I have a need to build Lustre-1.5.95 only :) I had built the kernel 2.6.18 but while creating rpms through "make rpms" for lustre-1.5.95 there are lots of errors. Am I missing something other than applying the patches included in series file?

Are there any major functionality or optimization differences b/w 1.5.95 and 1.6.4.2?

Almost a year has passed since the actual 1.6.0 release. A lot of fixes and enhancements have gone into 1.6 since 1.5.95. You will save yourself a lot of pain by getting on something current. You are likely to get more answers to your questions if people don''t have to dig back over a year in their memory for answers. b. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
