Furthermore,
you should have a version requested by vdsm-tool configure.
If there is an old version, the config should update the file.
Having a higher version shouldn't be possible unless you modified it
manually:
In such a case, you should place "# VDSM PRIVATE" into the config, which
means you should maintain it.

This one is not recommended, as there can be some new config that has no
support in old code and can lead it to misbehave.
