Hi
for reasons of QLogic HCA OFED+ compatibility I need to find a version
of lustre that that will work with the RHEL55 2.6.18-194 kernel.
The version on downloads wants 238-12-1(RHEL5.6) but Qlogic say their
drivers don't support that.
I can't find *anything* useful on oracle/sun
I guess I need to build lustre myself.
So first I have a couple of questions.
-will the latest lustre src release work with rhel55?(2.6.18-194)
-how do I add OFED to the git build tree? NB I'll be adding
QLogic-Basic OFED+
The last time I built lustre was for 1.6.
I have been following the CentOS55/56 walk though on the wiki
http://wiki.whamcloud.com/display/PUB/Wiki+Front+Page
Just adding RHEL55 in place of Centos56 fails at the kernel 'make rpm'
build stage

I'll keep trying..
