Re: lltng enabled by default and qemu apparmor|selinux problems

IF I can add my $0.02 - we were unable to use the libradosstriper library in RHEL6 because it uses the same initialisation tags as librados and lttng does not like that. We had no problems with RHEL7 version of ceph because lttng is not enabled. Please do not re-enable lttng in RHEL7 and later

What about running multiple clusters on the same host? There is a separate mail thread about being able to run clusters with different conf files on the same host. Will the new systemd service scripts cope with this? Paul Hewlett Senior Systems Engineer Velocix, Cambridge Alcatel-Lucent t: +44
