Hi All,
We have a new and improved version of LMT released
on Sourceforge. For those who have never used it, LMT is the Lustre
Monitoring Tool developed at LLNL. It provides realtime monitoring of a
Lustre filesystem (or multiple filesystems). It also graphs data over time
for a set of attributes specified by the user. Please feel free to try it
out.
Below are the release notes.

Release Notes for LMT 2.6.0 07 Apr 2008
========================================================================
* This version of LMT 2 has been tested to work properly with Lustre 1.6.x
It is no longer necessary to keep the old lustre *.xml configuration and
there are no more xwatch-lustre.conf or lmt.conf files to set up.
* LMT now uses Cerebro to transport the data collected from the Lustre
filesystem being monitored. For more info see:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cerebro
* Building the rpms requires ibm-java since this is what we use in Chaos 4.
This can be changed in the specfile to require Sun Java if that is
preferred (the main issue is that we need a full fledged JVM that
supports swing).
* There is now a dependency on mysql to store the collected data. Since the
resolution of the collection is ~5 seconds this can quickly consume a lot
of space. The clients and servers are completely decoupled.
* Please refer to the documentation for instructions on how to install and
configure LMT 2.
