$ make install ; make modules_install
$ mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18.8 2.6.18.8
$ update-grub

$ make -j 4 ; make install
$ depmod -a
$ vim /etc/modules 
ldiskfs
lnet networks=tcp
$ reboot

• Check Luster modules

  $ lsmod | grep lnet
  $ lsmod | grep ldiskfs
  

4. Setup Lustre

  $ sudo mount -t lustre /dev/sda2 /home/mdt
  

• Setup Object Storage Target

  $ mkfs.lustre --fsname=cloudfs --ost --mgsnode=cloud@tcp0 /dev/sda3
  $ sudo mount -t lustre /dev/sda3 /home/ost
  

• Lustre Client started

  $ df -h
  $ mount
