I have lustre installed on a CENTOS or rocks system
right now i am trying to install the vendor qlogic drivers so i can  
enable failover mode.
right now i have two block devices for each lun
ie /dev/sdr and /dev/sdai point to the same LUM on a 6141 array
there are two things that i have noticed the Lustre kernel sources  
seem to have broken links
the kernel-2.6 link points to a non existant directory
also the install of the qlogic driver fails.
i am hoping that someone else has run iinto this problem, i am using  
pretty comon HW
this is a QEM2462 FC card
and a sun 6240 blade.
here is the error i get.
