I was reminded by a colleague that RHEL 8.1 support is expected in the first quarter of 2020.

RHEL 8.1 is not yet supported so the mmbuildgpl error is not unexpected.  I do not recall when RHEL 8.1 will be supported.

Hello,

 

has anyone already tried Spectrum Scale on RHEL 8.1? I can see from the GPFS FAQ that “RHEL 8” (no minor version indicated) is supported as of the 5.0.4 release. However latest kernel level fully tested is 4.18.0-80, indicating that only RHEL 8.0 was tested. I tested an installation with 8.1 (kernel version 4.18.0-147) and mmbuildgpl failed due to errors while compiling the gpl (incompatible pointer type).

Is this expected behaviour or is there maybe something else wrong with the installation?

 

If this needs a new GPFS release, is there an estimated time? I would much prefer to install it with RHEL 8.1 due to 8.0 not being a EUS release.

 

Best,

Julian Jakobs
