Hello all,

I'm very new to cluster files systems and I was just tasked to load Lustre.
I just installed the rpm files in order according to section 1.2 Using
a "Prepackaged Lustre Release", however some things seem to be missing.

I'm trying to do a quick configuration on a single linux workstation running
Fedora Core and kernel-2.6.14-1.1637_FC4, kernel-2.6.15-1.1830.FC4,
kernel-smp-2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 and kernel-smp-2.6.15-1.1830_FC4. I had to force
it to load the Lustre kernel and kernel-smp SW, as the preexisting kernel files
were newer. After rebooting the workstation, I checked in /usr/lib/lustre,
but the only file in that directory is /usr/lib/lustre/python. The examples
are no where to be found. Do you have any suggestions and documentation
for newbies to load and test this software?

-gman

I would follow the wiki page, which is probably more up to date than the
manual:

That sounds like not all the RPMs were installed. Also, verify your
running kernel
with a `uname -a`
