You can use either jewel or luminous clients. Just be aware that the luminous cluster can't use luminous-only features until clients are upgrade. By default, new luminous clusters will set their "min compat client" to jewel, so no special configuration is needed. 3 is the smallest change and least risk, which is appealing. You'll want to do 2 eventually, and 1 is a step along that path. sage _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
