That document describes moving all clients/servers to the newer release. I
am trying to see if I can migrate execd clients to 6.2u5 while leaving the
master at 6.2u4.  My initial testing does not look promising.

I found binaries for 6.2u5 both in the form of a tarfile and packed in rpms
(in the EPEL repository for CentOS). However, if I try to use qstat from
these against my 6.2u4 qmaster, I get a timeout message:
error: failed receiving gdi request response for mid=1 (got syncron message
receive timeout error).
Is this expected?

Simon
