Hi Simmons,
Thanks for the response. Now I got the confidence that I could deploy
Lustre servers on Ubuntu nodes. :)
I am planning to use ZFS as the backing store. So as you mentioned, I
should not be having a problem with that. Also, I am planning to use the latest Lustre
version - 2.7.
In
Lustre.org downloads section for 2.7 release, I see the below:
Can I go with the packages in el6.6 for my deployment?
(I am guessing that 'el' implies Enterprise Linux and
'sles' implies Solaris enterprise Linux)
There is no prebuilt versus. You need to build yourself. To work with the latest code do
a
git clone
git://git.hpdd.intel.com/fs/lustre-release
cd lustre-release
sh ./autogen.sh
./configure –with-spl=/where/spl/is -–with-zfs=/where/zfs/lives
dpkg-buildpackage -us –uc
