Note too as (I discovered many months ago) mmbuildgpl make a false assumption about if it can build rpm's or not.
if [[ -f /etc/debian_version || "$(/usr/bin/lsb_release -is 2>/dev/null)" = Ubuntu ]]
then
isDebian=1
fi
then
isDebian=1
fi
then a bit later
--buildrpm | --build-package )
[[ $optName_lc = "--buildrpm" &&$isDebian -eq 1 ]] && syntaxError "help" $usageMsg
[[ $optName_lc = "--buildrpm" &&$isDebian -eq 1 ]] && syntaxError "help" $usageMsg
ie. it bails out with an error if /etc/debian_version exists at all, instead of aborting only if the rpm package is not installed. (!)
By editing this script I could build the gpfs.gpl as an rpm even if / etc/debian_version exists as was my case (since it *was* a Debain system).

Yes it does.
But you still have to export LINUX_DISTRIBUTION=REDHAT_AS_LINUX before the command.
i.e.
LINUX_DISTRIBUTION=REDHAT_AS_LINUX mmbuildgpl

On 4.2.0.3 run mmbuildgpl. See how that goes.

All,
We’re upgrading our cluster from GPFS 4.1.0.8 to GPFS 4.2.0.3 and all is going very well … except for my tape backup server.
I’ve run the Spectrum Scale installer and installed the rpm’s in /usr/lpp/mmfs/4.2.0.3/gpfs_rpms, but when I run:
make LINUX_DISTRIBUTION=REDHAT_AS_LINUX Autoconfig
it errors with:
make[3]: *** [/usr/lpp/mmfs/src/gpl-linux/kdump-kern.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [_module_/usr/lpp/mmfs/src/gpl-linux] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.32-573.el6.x86_64'
make[1]: *** [modules] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/lpp/mmfs/src/gpl-linux'
make: *** [Modules] Error 1
Any ideas? Thanks in advance…
