Hi,
i've prepared a test setup (see
https://github.com/marcindulak/vagrant-lustre-tutorial)
in order to test a possible migration of the 1.8.9-wc1 servers into lustre
2.X.
The requirement is that the new 2.X servers must work with the old clients
1.8.9-wc1 in a (possibly long) transition period. Which X too choose?
As a side point, I'm suggesting the maintainers responsible for lustre
documentation make use of this setup. Lustre really lacks good
documentation,
and having a runnable vagrant example is helpful.
Back to the interoperability question, it seems not working for me.

I found two posts:
https://lists.01.org/pipermail/hpdd-discuss/2013-November/000614.html
and https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-5974 . The latter one is more
recent and suggests
some kind of interoperability is still there. I can mount the filesystem on
centos6_lustre18 with mds01@tcp0:/testfs, but not with mds01@tcp0,mds02@tcp0
:/testfs.
The mds02 is not active.
I get a similar problem for ubuntu12 client (official Ubuntu's 1.8.5):
while I can mount mds01@tcp0,mds02@tcp0:/testfs, accessing the filesystem
from the client hangs.
Remounting to mds01@tcp0:/testfs works.
Is there something wrong in my setup? What's the interoperability status?
Best regards,
Marcin
