Description

Dear support,
Is there some documentation existing describing the compatibility matrix between different client and server versions ?

We're currently running a lustre client / server in 2.0 and planning to migrate soon on new hardware but we're having various request of new OS which come with 2.8 version for the client. Is there a way we can ask for instance 2.8 version to behave as 2.0 client,..

I found the following similar ticket for older releases:
https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-1439
and some info about supported OS version and client/server version but not client to server compat https://wiki.hpdd.intel.com/display/PUB/Lustre+Support+Matrix

Thanks in advance for your help,
JD.
