HP SFS client configurations 1–9
1.3.4 Client configurations that do not work with HP SFS
It is either not possible to build or not possible to run HP SFS client configurations that use
HP SFS Version 2.2-0 client software in the following combinations:
• Any client architecture other than i686, ia32e, x86_64, or ia64.
• Any client system with a Quadrics interconnect software version earlier than Version 5.11.
• Any client system with Myrinet interconnect software Version 2.0.x; the HP SFS client kit may build in
this case, but the system does not run correctly.
• Any client system with a Myrinet interconnect software version earlier than Version 2.1.23; the HP SFS
client kit does not build in this case.
• Any client system with a Linux kernel version earlier than Version 2.4.20-31; such client nodes cannot
be patched correctly.

1. The versions of the Lustre client software (not the kernel) shipped with SLES 9 SP2 and SP3 are obsolete, and are not
compatible with HP SFS Version 2.2-0. The process of rebuilding the client software requires the kernel tree for
compilation purposes; for this reason (and only for this reason), the SFS Client Enabler rebuilds the kernel.
