[gpfsug-discuss] RHEL 7.5 and kernel 3.10.0-862

[Simon Thompson (IT Research Support)]

Hi Richard,

Ours run on 7.4 without issue. We had one upgrade to 7.5 packages (didn't reboot into new kernel) and it broke, reverting it back to a 7.4 release fixed it, so when support comes along, do it with care!

Simon

Hi Felipe

What about protocol servers, can they go above 7.3 yet with any version of Scale?

All,

Folks that have been updated to the 3.10.0-862 kernel (the kernel which ships with RHEL 7.5) as a result of applying kernel security patches may open a PMR to request an efix for Scale versions 4.2 or 5.0 . The efixes will then be provided once the internal tests on RHEL 7.5 have been completed, likely a few days before the 4.2.3.9 and 5.0.1.1 PTFs GA (currently targeted around mid June).

Regards,

Felipe
