<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi Vaibhav,<br><br></div>Theoretically, with Lustre, clients should work with within the same major-release. But, a rule of thumb would be to keep the consistency of releases two level up or down the server version. i.e, with server level of 2.4, you can have clients from 2.2 to 2.5. But, nothing is mandated. So, better have the same version to be on the safer side.<br><br></div>Happy to help.<br><div><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr">Warm Regards,<br>Abhay Dandekar<b><br><br><br></b></div></div>

<br>
The 2.1 client _should_ be compatible with newer 2.4 and 2.5 servers, but we only ever test interoperability with the newest release of any branch (2.1.6 in this case). It is recommended to upgrade your clients to this release anyway to get a large number of big fixes.<br>
