Hi Guys,<br><br>I am building our sles 11 lustre clients and was wondering how people deal with updates. Here are some options I was thinking about:<br><br>1) Build the systems and patch everything except the kernel. Then install the lustre client and kernel-ib rpm's. In the future we would upgrade everything except the kernel. Not sure about future dependency issues with upgrading everything except the kernel.<br>
<br>2) Build the systems and patch everything. Then compile the lustre-client lustre-modules and kernel-ib instead of using the sun provided rpm's. We will have to compile every time we upgrade our servers.<br><br>How do people handle updates on the client side. Is it easy to compile and maintain the lustre client? Where can I find detailed instructions on compiling the client?<br>
<br>Thanks in advance,<br>-J<br>
