[Lustre-discuss] lustre and latest errata kernel

[Mag Gam]

Dimitris,

We are dealing it very similar to yours. We are using the beta version
and patching it and rolling out the custom kernel. I am willing to
volunteer and create kernels for lustre but we need equipment and
testers.


Hope this helps!
