You're right, in your setup we shouldn't expect any early reply at all. The 1.6.4 server perhaps immediately send a reply in which a reserved field was not initialize to 0, which was interpreted by 1.6.5 client as an early reply, then be discarded because of size doesn't match. I guess it's not easy to reproduce, right? You can file a bug on our bugzilla, with as much information as possible. Thanks a lot. -- Eric _______________________________________________ Lustre-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lustre.org/mailman/listinfo/lustre-discuss
