[lustre-discuss] Lustre client 2.12.9 with RHEL 8.7

[Georgios Magklaras]

Hi,

RHEL 8.7 came out recently. I have thus compiled from the source rpms
(2.12.9) of RHEL 8.6 an rpm for the latest 8.7 kernel which is at the time
of writing:
4.18.0-425.3.1.el8.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Sep 30 11:45:06 EDT 2022

It seems to compile with no problems and I can load the module on that
kernel:

filename:
/lib/modules/4.18.0-425.3.1.el8.x86_64/extra/lustre-client/fs/lustre.ko
license:        GPL
version:        2.12.9
description:    Lustre Client File System
author:         OpenSFS, Inc. <http://www.lustre.org/>
rhelversion:    8.7
srcversion:     66DC328B9F6C22F46AB46AA
depends:        obdclass,ptlrpc,libcfs,lnet,lmv,mdc,lov
name:           lustre
vermagic:       4.18.0-425.3.1.el8.x86_64 SMP mod_unload modversions

Also able to mount Lustre. I will test the following days its stability and
performance, but my question is this: As 2.12.9 is supported for 8.6, do we
wait for something like 2.12.10 (?) to be on the safe (stability wise) side
or do we keep working with our rpms?

Best regards,
GM
