Hi all, I just have installed lustre 1.6.0.1 and before I will have forgotten how I just want to post it: 0. I habe unmounted all clients and servers 1. I installed kernel 2.6.18.8, reboot and test if everything is working. 2. I have installed e2fsprogs-1.39.cfs7-0redhat.i386.rpm with alien (reboot and test if everything is working). 3. applied all patches from lustre-1.6.0.1/lustre/kernel_patches/series/2.6.18-vanilla.series lustre-1.6.0.1/lustre/kernel_patches/series/ldiskfs-2.6.18-vanilla.series just with patch cd /usr/src/linux patch -p1 < /usr/src/lustre-1.6.0.1/lustre/kernel_patches/patches/lustre_version.patch ...
4. The patches mentioned in https://mail.clusterfs.com/pipermail/lustre-discuss/2006-October/002263.html https://mail.clusterfs.com/pipermail/lustre-discuss/2006-October/002256.html still have to be applied 5. ./configure --with-linux=/usr/src/linux --disable-quilt 6. make; make install unfortunately I have not managed to make debian packages and some old stuff of version 1.5.95 is liying around (and can make trouble?) 7. reboot don' t forget to configure your network (see Lustre 1.6.x Operations Manual 3.2.1 Module Parameters) 8. because I want to keep my old data I have done tunefs.lustre --writeconf /disk with all server disks 9. remounted all servers, mdt first 10. mount clients there are some error messages in the system log, but it seems that lustre has recovered them. At least I have got no error and the data are available! Up to now I have not done much with lustre 1.6.0.1 but I will do this soon and also will try to use patchless clients.
