Hi there
Here is an update on the Lustre 2.5 release.
Landings
========
-A number of landings made - see
http://git.whamcloud.com/?p=fs/lustre-release.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads...
-Now that the Feature Freeze has passed, the full list of features in 2.5 is known
Xattr Cache (LU-2869)
LNET router improvements (LU-2934/2950)
Errno translation (step towards sparc support) (LU-2743)
Permanent Parameters option for lctl set_param (LU-3155)
Reduce ldlm_poold cpu utilization (LU-2924)
HSM (LU-3608) There is still some remaining work for this to be feature complete. As per
the discussion on the CDWG call on Wednesday we are going to see we have extended the
landing window for these patches only in view of the high interest in this feature and the
belief that this work is close to completion. I will send out another update early next
week with the final outcome on this.
