Meta-data that is published with the Deb files is in-line below. This needs review, particularly:
- Meta-data for the Deb packages needs to be updated to reflect Whamcloud as maintainer.
- Kernel version numbers that these patches relate to needs to be verified.
– Deb meta-data –
Lustre is a scalable, secure, robust, highly-available cluster file system. It is maintained by Sun Microsystems, Inc.
and available from http://www.lustre.org Lustre servers require a number of patches to the core Linux kernel, mostly to export new functions, add features to ext3, and add a new locking path to the VFS. This package provides these patches for kernel versions 2.6.18, 2.6.21 and 2.6.22 on i386, amd64, powerpc and ia64 architectures.
For Lustre clients, you will also need to build a lustre-modules package, using the lustre-source package and module-assistant.
