This should work ok, as should Lustre 2.4.2 servers with 2.1.6 clients. We did test that
Lustre version interop but I think we tested with RHEL6.x on both servers and clients. It
should still work in theory (we certainly tested RHEL5.x clients during 2.1.6 release
testing) but I don’t think we have tried it to be certain. The same is probably true of
2.2 servers vs 2.1.x clients anyway.

I don't know that i was possible to mix lustre version between servers and clients.
If I a respect lustre matrix, can i upgrade my servers RHEL6.4 to lustre 2.2 and let my
clients on RHEL 5.5 on lustre 2.1.6 ?

We have run centos 5.8 / Lustre 2.1.5 clients against lustre 2.4 servers
without any problems. No guarantees, but that has worked for us.
I don't know how much testing (or haven't heard of much) that has been
done with lustre 2.5 servers and clients older than 2.4.

Hi everyone,
Thanks for your answers.
I plan to install lustre 2.2 because i have clients on rhel 5.5, by
seeing the lustre matrix, it seems i'm stuck on lustre 2.2, or 2.3 if
i upgrade my clients to rhel 5.9, isnt'it ?
Is there any problems with this lustre release ?

I would ask why you are installing Lustre 2.2 at this point? That is
an old version of Lustre for which no maintenance releases was or
will be made.
Better to stick with a version like 2.4 or 2.5 which will have
maintenance releases with bug fixes.
Cheers, Andreas
Does i have to use the driver include in RHEL or install mellanox
OFED ?
If i'm not wrong, RPM from whamcloud are built against infiniband
driver included in RHEL6.
Is there something specific to install ?
Thanks.
