+1. We are interested in SLES 12 SP3 too. BTW had anybody done any comparisons of SLES 12 SP2 (4.4) kernel vs RHEL 7.3 in terms of GPFS IO performance? I would think the 4.4 kernel might give it an edge. I'll probably get around to comparing them myself one day, but if anyone else has some numbers...

And for what it’s worth, there does not appear to be substantial changes in either kernel or glibc as compared to SLES 12 SP2. In fact, the latest SLES 12 SP2 kernel is ‘4.4.74-92.29’, while the initial SLES 12 SP3 kernel is ‘4.4.73-5.1’. Given this, I wanted to ask the team at IBM: 1) have you begun looking into SLES 12 SP3 yet? 2) if so, do you have any idea when you might release a fully supported version of Spectrum Scale for SLES 12 SP3? Those of us who run SLES and are looking to deploy new infrastructure this fall would prefer to do so on the latest rev of our OS, as opposed to one that is already on life support... -- Jonathan Mills / [email protected] NASA GSFC / NCCS HPC (606.2) Bldg 28, Rm.
