US Government Shutdown Impact
Chris (LLNL) may not be available on next CDWG call, depending on length of US Gov. shutdown.

ORNL has a few weeks of float still before impacted.

Telecon number still available? Might need to make alternate phone call plans.

Biggest impact to Lustre development: Hyperion would be unavailable if LLNL shutdown.

2.5.0 Status
Have been using hyperion to test master.

Will test as much as possible on hyperion through end of the week with what is currently available.

One remaining blocker patch waiting for work from Xyratex (LU-4050/LU-3240). Probably not available by end of week.

If LLNL shuts down due to congressional funding situation, hyperion could be unavailable as soon as midday Friday.

Can do small scale testing elsewhere.

Others looking into if there are testing resources available as a fallback.

LU-3544, incompatibility patch pushed to fixing in 2.5.1.

2.6.0 Planning
Jodi Levi sent out Lustre 2.6.0 scope document.

Chris to send out email with a few more things he'd like to see in document.

DDN working on LU-4017 for 2.6.

Test plan document next after scope. Jodi actively working on it now.

Action Items from last week

 * Meghan - Plans to work with performance engineer at Intel (James Nunez). Learning what testing currently done.
