[Lustre-discuss] up to date documentation

[John Richards]

There may be useful information on lustre.org, but "up to date documentation" isn't it.

The "Lustre Operations Manual" link on there points to 

http://wiki.lustre.org/manual/LustreManual20_HTML/index.html

which is not helpful - the differences between that documentation and current documentation caused some confusion for our organization's recent discussions about upgrading to Lustre 2.  Specifically wording in the beginning of 

http://wiki.lustre.org/manual/LustreManual20_HTML/UpgradingLustre.html

"Note - Lustre 1.8 clients support a mix of 1.8 and 2.0 OSTs, not all OSSs need to be upgraded at the same time"

versus

http://build.whamcloud.com/job/lustre-manual/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/lustre_manual.xhtml#upgradinglustre

"Note - Lustre 1.8 clients can interoperate with 2.x servers, but the servers should all be upgraded at the same time."

Even if the lustre.org documentation is correct for Lustre 2.0, I don't think anyone recommends upgrading to that version right now.
