OK. But the question is if this issue still applies for lustre-1.8.3 and SLES kernel linux-2.6.27.39-0.3.1.tar.bz2. I mean, is quite surprising that if this problems persist, Oracle is offering lustre packages for SLES11 with CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y ??????? I am just about to start testing, so I'd like to clarify this.
