And in that command, dracut regenerates initramfs. Unfortunately, this process is very slow.</p> <p>However, in most of cases, Lustre modules are not necessary for initramfs.<br/> Thus, regenerating initramfs in scripts of RPMs is a waste of time, especailly for developers, since they need to install/uninstall RPMs frequently.</p> LU-7722
