[Starlingx-discuss] how to get rt-kernel support ?

Thank you for your response to this query. But I am still not clear on this. Are you saying that, the kernel-rt RPM will get installed only for “lowlatency” nodes?
If my understanding is correct then I have few more questions:


-    How can I set the node as “lowlatency” node? (Is there any documentation reference for this ?)

-    Can I make the controller node as a low low-latency node or is it possible for only worker nodes ?

-    What are the pre-requirement for a node to be a low-latency node ?

-    Post installation, is there a way to make a node as low-latency node ?


I have All-in-one-Duplex mode of deployment, both having “controller” personality  and “controller,worker” as subfunctions.

capabilities          | {u'stor_function': u'monitor', u'Personality': u'Controller-Active'}
capabilities          | {u'stor_function': u'monitor', u'Personality': u'Controller-Standby'}
personality           | controller
subfunctions          | controller,worker

Regards,
Ankush

The kernel-rt RPM is installed on the “lowlatency” nodes. For AIO, you’d want to install AIO-lowlatency.  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌

Hi,

I couldn’t find the rpm for rt-kernel. Is starlingx comes up with rt-kernel support or it need to be patched ?

Any pointer to get the rt-kernel support ?
