IIRC "patchless server" can only serve ZFS based backends.
So, it you really need ldiskfs - you're stuck with patched kernel for now.

Hi all

i am currently upgrading a lustre 2.10.3 to 2.12.4 on CentOS 7.7 and I
am unsure if I should use the patchless or patched server version. what
is the advantage of still using the patched server version over using
the patchless variant? From an linux sysadmin point of view I prefer to
use an unpatched kernel and it would seem unnecessary to still maintain
a patched variant if they both worked the same in the end.

regards

Pascal
