<div dir="ltr">Related question: What's the best ubuntu client version to use with RHS servers ? I have a mix of RH and Ubuntu clients, and the ubuntu clients are on the 3.5 ppa right now. I haven't seen any problems yet, but i would like to stick to best practices, if there are any. Once RHS 3.1 is rolled out, which I guess is based on 3.7 upstream, I was planning to upgrade clients to 3.6 ppa. i.e. I'm following the one major version older than the server heuristic. </div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jul 1, 2015 at 12:09 PM, Scott Harvanek <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:scott.harvanek@login.com" target="_blank">scott.harvanek@login.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I would if I could but modifying the RHEVH instances seems like a bad idea....<br>

so 3.6.0.53 isn't going to be opversion 30600 like stated here?<br>

<br>
I'd assume the opver would remain the same even with their patches.<br>
<br>
I want the server cluster opversion and the client opversion to match so<br>
certain performance translators can be used, currently 3.6.3 on the server<br>
and 3.6.0.53 on the client blocks performance translators such as<br>
write-behind.<br>

If you do not use the Red Hat Gluster Storage product, you will not<br>
really get support on the glusterfs-client packages in RHEL either. The<br>
combination of the two versions is just not (well) tested. You are<br>
probably better of to use the community glusterfs client packages for<br>
accessing the Gluster volumes too.<br>
<br>
Have you considered this approach? If you want the full support on the<br>
gluster client side, you will need to use the Red Hat Gluster Storage<br>
product on the storage servers. Any difficulties with deploying or<br>
packaging the RHEL/RHGS product combination should get discussed with<br>
your Red Hat support contacts. They should be able to explain how to do<br>
it right, and/or get fixes in an updated version.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

you have RHEV hypervisors... which is a bit annoying.<br>
Well if you are talking about rhs 3.6.0.53 as a client then definitely the<br>
op version is not 30600 and also my question is why would you want to bump<br>
down your server's cluster op version?<br>
