I can't imagine why it would be.</p> <p>As for your error, you say you are building a patchless client, so then ext4 source should not be necessary. Lustre's configure should automatically detect if building a server or patchless client is achievable based on the linux-devel location you point to with the "&#45;&#45;with-linux" argument, but you can be explicit by giving configure a "--disable-server" option also.</p> <p>Minh</p> <p>Could you please help with this one?</p> <p>Thanks</p> <p>Peter</p> <p>Hi Peter,<br/> the problem is solved using explicity the option --disable-server --enable-client .</p> <p>thanks in advance. This issue is close for me</p> <p>ok thanks!</p> <p>It would be interesting to understand however why configure could not figure the "--disable-server --enable-client" options automagically, as it's supposed to be able to.</p> Development Epic client Rank 1|hzvgkf: Rank (Obsolete) 6333 Severity
