Lustre discuss - Aug 2011 - Where to download Lustre from since 01 Aug?

Dear all,

after the migration of the Sun downloads website to Oracle, I couldn''t
find a place anymore where I can actually download anything lustre
related.

Can someone point me to a site which still works after August 1st?

Thanks

  Torsten

I see a previous post regarding this.

Since Oracle decommissioned the Sun Download Center, all links for 
downloading Lustre appear to go in circles, always bringing you back to 
a page that has no path to anything Lustre related.

Does anyone have any insights as to where Oracle buried it?

I don''t, but if you decide to give up trying to find the Oracle release
you could instead use the Whamcloud Lustre release(s) at
http://downloads.whamcloud.com/public/ which is just a plain old web
server for simple, straightforward downloading.

Cheers,

I too went around in circles following the "Lustre download link".

Anyone with a "My Oracle Support" account can download zipped bundles
of
RPMs from the "Patches and Updates" section.

Is there a whamcloud version of a lustre-1.8.5.tar.gz or 1.8.6 that I can
use to build rpms for RedHat/CentOS 6? (Specifically CentOS
6,  2.6.32-71.29.1.el6.x86_64)

Thanks!
Aaron

Hi Aaron,

There is a description on building from Whamcloud git on:
http://wiki.whamcloud.com/display/PUB/Walk-thru-+Build+Lustre+2.1+on+RHEL+6.1+from+Whamcloud+git

I recently worked through that page, updating for RHEL 6.1, so I''m not
sure
on the page''s applicability to CentOS 6. If you make progress (or
otherwise)
I would appreciate feedback.

Also, there is a page on building RPMs with 1.8.6, but that is for CentOS 5:
http://wiki.whamcloud.com/display/PUB/Walk-thru-+Build+Lustre+1.8+on+CentOS+5.5+or+5.6+from+Whamcloud+git
again, feedback is welcome.

richard,

I had gone that route.  At first attempt, I could not even locate it. 
Since you mentioned it was available on the "My Oracle Support" site.
I
tried again.   I did manage to locate the RPM''s for various 
distributions.  Once selected, I am told I do not have sufficient 
privileges to download.   I guess the "Anyone with a "My Oracle
Support"
account does not apply.

Thanks Richard!

Using the 1.8.6 CentOS 5 instructions I was able to successfully use git,
configure, make rpms for what I needed. The "Provision Machine"
instructions
were followed exactly, and since I only needed client rpms, I skipped to the
"Configure and Build Lustre" section, which produced the
rpm''s I needed.

Installing the RPM''s was smooth, and after install Lustre mounted.

One oddity, there is no /etc/modprobe.conf file to enter lnet options in,
however everything seems to be mounting without error.

Aaron,

If your new OS  has an /etc/modprobe.d/ directory you can put the old
modprobe.conf options into a new file (we''re using
/etc/modprobe.d/lustre.conf) and they should work fine.

Total contents of lustre.conf on one of our clients:

options lnet networks=tcp0(eth0)

caveat - I haven''t touched CentOS 6 yet, but am using Scientific Linux
6

I did build 1.8.6-wc1 server rpms for centos5.6 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5.
I tried acc-sm (the 1.8.6 client was running on sles11sp1) and no regression
found from 1.8.5. :)

Hi List,

We too, got lost looking for downloads in the Oracle etherland...

Are there any differences between the "official" version and the 
whamcloud version? Also, I don''t see previous releases such as 1.8.4 or
1.8.5 available, are 1.8.6 and 2.0.0 the only versions available through 
whamcloud?

Will OpenSFS be taking over the maintenance/hosting of Lustre now that 
Oracle seems to have dropped support?

Thanks in advance!

Currently it is firms like ourselves at Xyratex and Whamcloud who are providing
support and maintenance of Lustre.
