[lustre-discuss] RHEL 9.8 and 10.2 support

[David Cohen]

Hi Peter,
The new kernel presented with EL 10.2 presents changes preventing DKMS from
recompiling Lustre modules.
There is even a Jira ticket following the issue since the beta,
highlighting the security fixes in the new kernels.
https://jira.whamcloud.com/browse/LU-20070
