So … I have another question on support.
We’ve just ordered some Power 9 nodes, now my understanding is that with 7.4, they require the -ALT kernel (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/linuxonibm/liaam/liaamdistros.htm) which is 4.x based. I don’t see any reference in the Spectrum Scale FAQ to the ALT kernels.
So what Scale code is supported for us to run on the Power9s?
Thanks
Simon

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
