[Lustre-discuss] Lustre module not loading on client mount

Hey Mike,

That's pretty odd, it looks like the o2ib module has a symbol mismatch 
with the ofed driver. I'm surprised it works at all...can you send the 
dmesg output after modprobe lustre + mounting, as well as the lctl 
list_nids output?

Thanks,
Kit

I haven't done extensive testing to see if that works all the time or not. The other odd thing is that if the FSs don't mount on boot a manual mount command does not work without first doing "modprobe lustre" first. This is what I see in that case:
