We use this on our lustre 2.5.3 but now your apache user uid and gid have to be known on mds server

> We recently built some new systems using lustre 2.5.3 and now this functionality is broken in the same way that Eric describes - symlinks to directories and files on the lustre filesystem are denied by the apache server. This doesn't seem to be due to our apache configuration since symlinks to files and directories in ordinary (non-lustre) nfs-mounted filesystems work. Also the nfs-exported filesystems behave normally - you can copy files in, as well as create and delete files as you wish.

> We have also built a test apache server with lustre client modules that directly mount our lustre filesystems. symlinks to the directories in the lustre fs within /var/www/html similarly return the forbidden access message with the above mdc_locks error.

> We're running CentOS 6 with lustre 2.5.3 on the client and server side. To repeat, direct client mounts of the lustre filesystems behave normally as well as nfs-exported mounts. Only apache access to symlinks of files on a lustre filesystem give trouble.
