While mounting Lustre 1.8.5.56 client on node client-12-ib, it failed to connect to the Lustre 1.6.7.2 MDS server (fat-amd-1-ib) as follows:

[root@client-12-ib ~]# mount -t lustre -o user_xattr,acl,flock fat-amd-1-ib@o2ib:/lustre /mnt/lustre
mount.lustre: mount fat-amd-1-ib@o2ib:/lustre at /mnt/lustre failed: Cannot send after transport endpoint shutdown

Dmesg on client-12-ib showed that:
