Yes and no. The problem I'm having is with SELinux. SELinux does NOT
play properly with lustre on the client side. When I mount with
nouser_xattr users can't set extended attributes, however the system
tries to assign security labels to the files under certain
conditions. This happens mostly when files containing labels are
moved to our lustre volumes. On another note I have written SELinux
policies (or tried to) for the client side. They label files just
fine, however new directories and their children (be it directories
or other files) don't contain the appropriate labels. How are
extended attributes stored? On the metadata volume or on the OST?

I just upgraded to lustre 1.6.0.1. I want to disable xattr on the

Add "nouser_xattr" to the mountfsoptions should work. This is also
documented in the mount.lustre(8) man page.
