[linux-lvm] Availabality of LVM on IA64???

[LAKSHMIPATHY,ARUN (HP-India,ex2)]

Hi,

Wanted to check out if 1.1-rc2 supports IA64 platform or not. When I try and
build the lvm lib from the 1.1-rc2 sources i get a lot of integer to pointer
type cast warnings, hence I have this doubt could not find any release
notes/docs which mention anything about IA64 support.  Need  to know if IA64
support is available on 1.1 or not, else is there any beta that I can try
out?? 

Also when i build 1.1-rc1 sources i get a shared lib as well as a arcghive
lib whereas building 1.1-rc2 builds only an archive lib, i need a shared
lib, am i missing something here?  

Regards
Arun

I've not tried LVM on IA64 but I know for certain that 1.0.4 works fine on
Alpha. The type cast warning are all in logging/debugging statements.

Hi Arun,

We had talked to Sistina about porting LVM to IA64 earlier this year. 
They told us that they did not have the equipment to do the port.  I
suggested to our management that it might be a good idea to send them a
system, but the issue was dropped.
