I would strongly suggest make -j something for parallelism, unless you want to have time to go out for your coffee.

John,

You can rebuild 2.8 against MOFED. 1) Install MOFED version of choice. 2) Pull down the 2.8 Lustre source and configure with '--with-o2ib=/usr/src/ofa_kernel/default'. 3) `make rpms` 4) Install. 5) Profit.

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,
-john c
