[Lustre-discuss] Lustre bug affecting external journals

[Peter Jones]

Hi there

Any Lustre users using external journals on Lustre releases 1.4.12 and 
all 1.6.x releases since 1.6.1 should be aware of bug 18018.

This bug can result in the journal device entering read only mode after 
an umount then remount. A normal mount on boot will not be affected

There is a patch applied to the bug and this fix will be in both 1.6.7 
(which is in release testing atm) and 1.8.0.

Regards

PJones
