llmount is only in the tarball, not the rpms; follow the instructions on the wiki for a simple setup. The rpms install the modules in the right place. modprobe.conf only needs to be modified to work with your networking setup, see

Another related question. What do I need to do if I want to roll back to
1.4.7.3 from 1.6?

There's a section on downgrading at https://mail.clusterfs.com/wikis/lustre/UpgradeTo16

Subject: Re: [Lustre-discuss] Configure 1.6 beta

The script lustre/tests/llmount.sh will load the modules from the local build dir and start a small Lustre fs on a single node. You can change many of options by overriding the values set in lustre/tests/cfg/local.sh if e.g. you want to use real disks. But eventually you need to put the modules in the appropriate place for the kernel to find them if you ever want to do anything else. lustre/utils/module_setup.sh does this for you, and modifies /etc/modprobe.conf for a basic tcp LNET setup.

Hi,

I'm new to Lustre and trying to evaluate 1.6 beta. My first
goal is to
setup a single node system. I'm following the MountConf
manual and a
bit confused by the section "Module setup" (not sure where to find utils/module_setup, and which "make all" it's talking about). Do I really need to do anything here? Or can I just run mkfs.lustre and mount to get the system up and running?

Thanks
lin
