Gluster users - Jul 2011 - Will glusterFS 3.1.3 clients work against version 3.1.5 storage servers?

I'd like to upgrade my servers first - currently running GlusterFS 3.1.3. -
to version 3.1.5.

However, all my deployed clients are all running version 3.1.3, and I can't
upgrade them all at the same time - I have to do it as each one reboots (usually
weekly).

Servers are running CentOS 5.6, if that makes any difference.

Anyone know of any issues doing this? I know that I can't use 3.1.5 native
GlusterFS clients against 3.1.3 servers (see here:

)

Hi James,

Yes, 3.1.3 clients are compatible with 3.1.5 servers but not the other way
round.
