I think lconf and lmc went away with Lustre 1.6. Are you sure you are looking at the 1.8 manual, and not directions for 1.4?
/usr/sbin/lctl should be in the lustre-<version> RPM. Do a: # rpm -q -l lustre-1.8.0-2.6.18_92.1.17.el5_lustre.1.8.0smp Do make sure the modules are installed in the right place: # cd /lib/modules/`uname -r` # find . | grep lustre.ko If it shows up, then do: # lustre_rmmod # depmod and try again. Otherwise, figure out where your modules are installed: # uname -r # cd /lib/modules # find . | grep lustre.ko You can also double-check the NID. On the MSD server, do # lctl list_nids Should show 10.0.0...@tcp0 Kevin Carlos Santana wrote: > Thanks for the update Sheila.
