Yes, older versions of GPFS don't recognize /dev/nvme*. So you would need /var/mmfs/etc/nsddevices user exit. On newer GPFS versions, the nvme devices are also generic. So, it is good that you are using the same NSD sub-type.

Do you mean you pinned the minor release to 7.X but yum upgraded you to 7.Y? This has just happened to me: [root@ ~]# subscription-manager release Release: 7.4 [root@ ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.5 (Maipo) Granted I didn?t issue a yum clean all after changing the release however I?ve never seen this happen before. Anyway, I need to either downgrade back to 7.4 or upgrade GPFS, whichever will be the best supported. I need to learn to pay attention to what kernel version I?m being updated to in future!

It was determined that the caches had been updated to the 7.5 packages, before I set the release to 7.4/ Since I didn't clear and delete the cache it used what it had and did the update to 7.5. So always clear and remove the cache before an update.

After doing the standard mmcrnsd to set it up Spectrum Scale fails to see it. I've added a script /var/mmfs/etc/nsddevices so that gpfs scans them, and it does work now. What "type" should I set the nvme drives too? I've currently set it to "generic" I want to do some tidying of my script, but has anyone else tried to get lroc running on nvme and how well does it work. We're running CentOs 7.4 and Spectrum Scale 4.2.3-8 currently. Thanks in advance. -- Peter Childs ITS Research Storage Queen Mary, University of London ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ gpfsug-discuss mailing list gpfsug-discuss at spectrumscale.org http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss End of gpfsug-discuss Digest, Vol 77, Issue 15 **********************************************
