Re: [lustre-discuss] Rocky 9.2/lustre 2.15.3 client questions
Thanks Andreas - We tried the patch, it looks like there is also one other script that also use python2: contrib/scripts/gerrit_checkpatch.py With both fixed, the dkms rpm appears to be built without the python2 dependency, and dkms builds and installs the modules fine. Many Thanks, Christopher. From: Andreas Dilger Sent: 23 June 2023 19:15 To: Mountford, Christopher J.

Re: [lustre-discuss] Rocky 9.2/lustre 2.15.3 client questions
Hi Christopher, Not an exact match, but we've seen problems running Vasp on a 2.15.x client against 2.12.6 servers. It can get in quite a tangle, to the point that other clients cannot "ls -l" the Vasp working directory. Don't know (yet) if it's also true of 2.12.9.
