[Lustre-discuss] Most recent Linux Kernel on the client for a 1.8.7 server
Hi list, could someone please tell me what the most recent kernel version (and lustre version) is on the client side, if I have to stick to 1.8.7 on the server side? I think Lustre 2.1 will is not compatible, the 1.8.8 client can be compiled with 2.6.32 but I do not know how 2.0 is doing ... Regards, Michael -- Dr.-Ing.

You can build the 1.8.x client with a few patches on CentOS6 (2.6.32), but you should really consider to upgrade to 2.x in the future. Regards, Adrian -- RFC 1925: (11) Every old idea will be proposed again with a different name and a different presentation, regardless of whether it works.
