I have an existing 2.8 install that broke when we added MOFED into the mix.

Nothing I do wrt installing 2.8 rpms works to fix this, and I get a couple of missing symbole, when I install lustre-modules:
depmod: WARNING: /lib/modules/3.10.0-327.3.1.el7_lustre.x86_64/extra/kernel/net/lustre/ko2iblnd.ko needs unknown symbol 
ib_query_device
depmod: WARNING: /lib/modules/3.10.0-327.3.1.el7_lustre.x86_64/extra/kernel/net/lustre/ko2iblnd.ko needs unknown symbol ib_alloc_pd

I'm assuming the issue is that lustre 2.8 is built using the standard Centos 7.2 infiniband drivers.

I can't move to Centos 7.3, at this time.  Is there any way to get 2.8 up & running w. mofed without rebuilding lustre rpms?

If I have to rebuild, it'd probably be easier to go to 2.10 (and zfs 0.7.1). Is that a correct assumption?
Or will the 2.10 rpms work on Centps 7.2?

thanks,
