Sorry, let me correct that: I'm actually doing this under CentOS 6.2 with a
2.6.32 kernel. We also have a bunch of CentOS 5.7 machines, but they'll be
upgraded before I try to make them ceph clients.
Regarding the possibility of using a later kernel, I could do that, but
then I'd need to worry more about keeping on top of security updates. If I can
use the stock CentOS kernel, then I can just let the CentOS maintainers worry
about that.
Regarding the possibility of moving the 32-bit machines to 64-bit, it's an
option, but there's otherwise very little pressure to make the move, and some
trepidation about what might break. For us, a 32-bit kernel with PAE has been a
fine configuration.
