Hi Jim! You should not have any problem running OrangeFS with Linux 3.0.60, 3.1, 3.2, or 3.3, and you can easily upgrade from 2.8.5 to 2.8.7 because there are no structural changes underneath the covers that require a database upgrade.
Hope you are doing well. Becky On Wed, Jan 23, 2013 at 12:02 AM, Jim Kusznir <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all: > > I'm running Rocks 6.0, which is based on CentOS 6.
