[lustre-discuss] can't install Lustre 2.12.7

[Riccardo Veraldi]

Hello,

I am not successful installing lustre 2.12.7 I run into a problem with 
dkms on RHEL 7.9

kernel 3.10.0-1160.42.2.el7.x86_64

I am using rpm from 
https://downloads.whamcloud.com/public/lustre/lustre-2.12.7/el7.9.2009/server/RPMS/x86_64/

the lustre dkms module fails building, seems like something is missing 
or there is a wrong path somewhere so that the proper headers are not 
found, but I Could not figure out what. I Tried both with zfs-0.7.13 and 
zfs-0.8.6 but same result. So I am missing something

Any hints ? I am stuck.

ZFS is:

libnvpair1-0.7.13-1.el7.x86_64
spl-0.7.13-1.el7.x86_64

libuutil1-0.7.13-1.el7.x86_64
