Hi,

Here's an update. Still no luck with CentOS 6.10 and MOFED 4.4-1.0.0.0.
The same with the new 4.4-2.0.7.0 and Lustre 2.10.5.

However, CentOS 7.5 works with 4.4-2.0.7.0 in my setup. We are testing
CentOS 7, but not ready to roll it out yet. It will be CentOS 6 until then.

Mellanox haven't been able to track it down. We might give them access
to debug this.

Anyone, using CentOS 6.10 and MOFED 4.4 successfully with Lustre?

Cheers,
Hans Henrik
