I'm not entirely comfortable with our current solution. One of the main requirements seems to be that Lustre (included the kernel modules) needs to be installed in a non-standard filesystem root. </p> <p>I wonder if it isn't possible to achieve that goal through more standard means. For instance, we could make Lustre packages relocatable, and then use standard rpm --root, --dbpath, --relocate, and --prefix options at installation time to install the package into a non-standard location.</p> <p>I believe that Cray also installs lustre in non-standard subdirectories, so perhaps we can come up with a non-MIC-specific solution that works for multiple people.</p> LU-3958
