Lustre 1.6 Operations Manual

This example is for the RHEL 2.6 kernel.
$ lustre/build/lbuild--extraversion=1.4.9 \
--target=2.6-rhel4
--target-archs=i686 \
--release \
--kerneldir=/path_to_tarball/ \
--stage=/path_to_working_dir/ \
--lustre=/path_to_lustre_tarball/ \
--nodownload
4.4.2 Lustre Source Tarball from CVS
The following example shows how to build a tarball from CVS 4 , and includes the
building of additional network drivers (gm and vib).
You must properly configure the network driver tree prior to starting lbuild. The
network drivers are compiled as part of the Lustre build. Options after the '--'
separator are passed directly to the Lustre ./configure script.
In the example:
Replace CVSROOT with the proper CVS string.
--tag is the CVS tag for the version you are building.
$ lustre/build/lbuild--extraversion=1.4.7.1 \
--target=2.6-rhel4
--target-archs=i686 \
--release \
--kerneldir=/path_to_tarball/ \
--stage=/path_to_working_dir/ \
--d:ext:$CVROOT
--tag=b_release_1_4_7 \
--disable-datestamp \
-- /* following options will be passed to lustre */ \
--with-gm=/path_to_gm/gm-2.1.23_Linux \
--with-vib=/path_to_vib/ibhost-3.5.0_13
Tip – After installing Lustre, you can download and install service tags, which
enable automatic discovery and tracking of the system components and better
management of your Lustre environment. For more information, see Service Tags.
4. CVS is not generally available. If you need CVS access or additional information, contact the Lustre Group.
