  Honestly, we do not suggest the mixed mode as you mentioned unless you 
have to for some special reasons.
There are some known interoperability issues between lustre-1.8 and 
lustre-2.0. These are part of them in the list:

https://bugzilla.lustre.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=1.8%3C-%3E2.0+interop

And as I known, most interoperability issues were fixed after 
lustre-1.8.3, so lustre-1.8.x with "x>=4" for your configuration maybe work.


Cheers,
Nasf
