Deploy lustre RPMs on your test nodes using your favourite method.
Suggested Method:
- Copy the RPMs to the test node in some directory
mkdir ~/lustre_rpms scp root@buildmachine:~/lustre_build/*.rpm ~/lustre_rpms
- uninstall any existing Lustre rpms
rpm -e --nodeps kmod-lustre kmod-lustre-osd-ldiskfs kmod-lustre-tests lustre lustre-iokit \ lustre-osd-ldiskfs-mount lustre-tests lustre-resource-agents lustre-debuginfo
- Install the new rpms
rpm --nodeps --ivh *.rpm
- The LUTF is now installed with the rest of the lustre tests
cd /usr/lib64/lustre/tests/lutf
