[Lustre-discuss] RHEL5 Lustre system updating precautions

I forgot to add to that by asking about updating Lustre itself. My 
tendency would be to leave well enough alone and attempt an upgrade of 
Lustre on a production system unless absolutely necessary. However, I 
then worry about falling behind and being left without a supported 
upgrade path. Any advice on this as well?

Thanks,
Nick
