[lustre-discuss] Issues compiling lustre-client 2.8 on CentOS 7.4

[Scott Wood]

Afternoon, folks,


In the interest of patching kernels to mitigate Meltdown security issues on user accessible systems, we're trying to build lustre client rpms for the latest released Centos 7.4 kernel, 3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64.  We're running in to issues compiling though.  As I understand from the docs, as our servers are CentOS6 and running the Intel distributed 2.7.0 server binaries, the newest "officially" supported client versions are lustre 2.8.


Has anyone run the 2.10.2 (or 2.10.x) clients connecting to 2.7.0 servers (as we have successfully built all client rpms from a current git checkout, and from a 2.10.2 checkout)?  Alternatively, is there a known 2.8.x tag that builds successfully on CentOS7.4?  Is there a third option that folks would propose?

Cheers

Scott
