See, this sort of thing:

"A security vulnerability has been identified in the current levels of IBM 
Spectrum Scale V4.1.1 thru 4.1.1.3 and V4.2.0.0 that could allow a local 
unprivileged user,
or a user with network access to the IBM Spectrum Scale cluster, to access 
admin passwords for object storage infrastructure.
This vulnerability only affects clusters which have installed and deployed the 
Object protocol."

Is exactly why we don't want to be installing components that we aren't 
actively using ...

I see your point, but our recommendation is to always install 
gpfs.protocols-support-4.2.0-0.noarch on protocol nodes, even if a single 
protocol is used only.
This is consistent with how the Spectrum Scale installer is setting up systems.

OK, Iooked at that. This means pulling in all the object and NFS stuff as well 
onto my server as well.

I only run SMB, so I don;'t want lots of other stuff installing as well ..

Hi,

you are right that python-ldap is a required dependency for 4.2 protocol nodes.
Please make sure to have the gpfs.protocols-support-4.2.0-0.noarch RPM 
installed on protocol nodes because this package will enforce the dependencies.

Hi,

I;ve just upgraded some of my protocol nodes to 4.2, I noticed on startup that 
in the logs I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/lpp/mmfs/bin/mmcesmon.py", line 178, in <module>

    import mmcesmon.CommandHandler

It looks like one EL7, you also need python-ldap installed (perhaps the 
installer does this, but it should really be a dependency of the RPM if its 
required?).

Anyway, if you see issues, add the python-ldap RPM and it should fix it.
