Yangsheng will be working on RHEL6.2 support

Any ETA on a patch for this? There is already a RHEL6.2 kernel release which will be the base for the next security update. It wouldn't be nice if we had to disable lustre after the next update. You can get a binary package of the latest kernel vom Scientific Linux:

Many thanks for the URL. I have working on FC15 support, it also help RhEL6.2 work. And i'll switch to work on rhel6.2 support shortly.

RHEL6.2 work will trace in LU-781.

Could this issue be reopened? While RHEL 6.2 support for Lustre 2.x appears to be progressing, there still has not been an updated release for 1.8.x.

If we do end up adding RHEL6.2 support for 1.8.x it will be tracked under a ticket for a more current RHEL6.2 kernel update
