[lustre-discuss] 2.10.1 client fails to mount on 2.9 backend

[Chris Horn]

Is the MGS actually on tcp or is it on o2ib? Can you “lctl ping” the MGS LNet nid from the client where you’re trying to mount?

Subject: [lustre-discuss] 2.10.1 client fails to mount on 2.9 backend

Just tested the new 2.10.1 client against one of my fileservers where I have 2.9 running.   Works with 2.10.0 but not 2.10.1, is this expected?

# mount -t lustre 172.30.69.90:/qstore /mnt
mount.lustre: mount 172.30.69.90:/qstore at /mnt failed: No such file or directory
Is the MGS specification correct?
Is the filesystem name correct?
If upgrading, is the copied client log valid? (see upgrade docs)

# dmesg -e | tail -4
