THis support will appear in future maintenance releases

[James A Simmons]

All the patches needed for proper MLNX 3.3 support have landed to b2_8_fe branch.

Any update on the solution.

Thank You

Hi Team,

Thanks for providing the input.
Can you please provide a patch for MOFED 3.3.X for Lustre 2.8.0. with Centos 6.7

It will be very help full.

Thank You
Atul Yadav

lustre 2.8.0 is missing the LU-8241 fix.
MOFED 3.3 didn't even exist at the time that version was created.

You will need to move to a later version of lustre to get any build support for MOFED 3.3 built in.

[Atul Yadav]

Thanks Team, for initiating the activity.

[James A Simmons]

See ticket LU-8571 for the patch list of what is needed to get MLNX 3.3 working.
