We are running lustre 1.6.3 with some patches we applied by hand with a patched 2.6.18-8.1.14 kernel on both the clients and servers. We think we are now hitting lustre bug 13197 and can no longer operate without a fix. We could apply the 13197 patch to 1.6.3 and keep going as we are but we would like to start moving to 1.6.4.2.
Would it be insane to update to 1.6.4.2 on the MDS and OSSs while continuing to run 1.6.3 on the clients or is 1.6.4.2 similar enough to interoperate with 1.6.3 clients? Note, I'm not asking for guarantees. Just wondering if anyone *knows* that this will or should not work.
