CentOS is a de-branded version of Redhat enterprise, so they are effectively 
binary-compatible. CentOS does not provide commercial support.

Our clusters use it exclusively with no issues, and I frequently mix RPMs from 
both.

Subject: [Lustre-discuss] Centos 5 with Lustre

Greetings,

(This my second try at getting this post to the list;
hope this one goes through ;-)

Next week I'll start installation of our test lustre
cluster.  If everything goes well it will eventually
hold all our data (we have about 350 TB).

Would it be unwise to use Centos rather than RHEL?

In my pre-tests (running with vmware) it seems to
run fine with CentOS 5.

Management, however, is concerned.  Do they have
reason to be?

thanks much,
JR
