                <br>
                <br>
                Here is an update on the Lustre 2.2 release. <br>
                <br>
                Testing <br>
                ======= <br>
                <br>
                -Testing has been ongoing on the 2.1.56 tag<br>
                -Hyperion scale performance testing has shown favourable
                results comparing 2.2 vs 2.1.1; apples to applies
                comparisons with 1.8.7 are harder because RHEL6 servers
                are not supported on 1.8.x and 2.2 does not support
                RHEL5 servers but we are exploring options<br>
                -We were able to use a test cluster onsite at Juelich in
                order to complete large LUN testing for 2.1.56<br>
                <br>
                Blockers<br>
                ========<br>
                -At the time of writing we are down to 4 blockers - see

                for details<br>
                <br>
                Other<br>
                =====<br>
                -Expect to branch b2_2 shortly which will open up master
                for 2.3 landings<br>
                <br>
                We will continue to provide periodic updates on our
                progress on this release. In the meantime, you can
                always see the landings as they happen at <a
