Review of actions from last meeting
======================

ACTION 2011-03-01 Xyratex to explore whether any existing Xyratex 2.x patches are appropriate for inclusion in the 2.1 release
-still no progress ONGOING

ACTION 2001-07-19 Xyratex to test 128TB LUN support on RHEL6
-Working through issues in test configuration prior to testing ONGOING

Testing update
==============

-TACC exploring setting up new test system
-ORNL regression testing and hit LU496 and LU427
-LLNL trying to gather more info for LU563
-Cray no progress this week
-Whamcloud testing SLES clients and upgrade testing

Blocker update
==============

-No blockers; hoping to tag RC1 soon; last call for landings before we freeze

-ORNL would like to see SLES server support(LU335) and wide striping client support (LU80) added to scope for the release; SLES server support is too large a change to make at this late stage; it may be possible to include LU80 but we will need to consider the risk trade-off of doing so

ACTION 2011-08-09 Jones to research whether LU80 can be added to scope for 2.1
