[lustre-discuss] MOFED 4.4-1.0.0.0

[Alexander I Kulyavtsev]

Hi Megan,
Standard lustre build works with in-kernel ofed. To use Mellanox ofed you have to rebuild lustre:
http://wiki.lustre.org/Compiling_Lustre
Apparently there is version of lustre 2.10.4 built with mlx ofed in whamcloud download area:
                https://downloads.whamcloud.com/public/lustre/lustre-2.10.4-ib/

What version did you try?

Best regards, Alex.

Hi,

I have found that Lustre-2.10.4 works only with CentOS linux kernel 3.10.0-693.x. and newer.  I discovered that Mellanox MOFED 4.3(or 4?)-1.0.1.0 (I'm not where I can verify the MOFED version number but it is 4 and ending in "1.0.1.0")  will not work with CentOS linux kernel 3.10.0-8*.  So I have a successful Lustre 2.10.4 with the "693" linux kernel series and MOFED 4.3/4-1.0.1.0

So I will second the statement that the software version stack is indeed "particular".

Cheers,
megan
