[gpfsug-discuss] Can gpfs 4.2.3-4.2 work for kernel 3.12.x or above?

[Jeffrey R. Lang]

Hi

Just a quick check.   I upgraded my test GPFS system to RHEL 7.5 today and now GPFS 4.2.3-6 and 4.2.3-8 no longer compile properly.  What version of GPFS (Spectrum Scale) is support on RHEL 7.5?

Thanks
Jeff

The FAQ at:

https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/STXKQY/gpfsclustersfaq.html#linux

Lists support with (e.g. Ubutu 16.04.2) with kernel 4.4.0-62, so likely it would work with a build your own kernel, but that doesn’t mean it is **supported**

    Hi All,
    
    Any one is using a Linux kernel 3.12.x or above
    to run gpfs 4.2.3-4.2? I mean you've compiled
    your own kernel without paying for a professional
    service.
    
    We're stuck by CentOS/RHEL's distributed kernel
    as the PCI passthrough is required for VMs. Your
    comments or suggestions are much appreciated.
    
    Kind regards,
