You might also consider that Luminous had a bad streak somewhere in the middle, so if people are cautious about .0 / .1 releases, wait until .5-.9 and still get burnt, that feeling gets stuck in your mind. Kraken was experimental, so Hammer and Jewel clusters waited for L to settle, then they got all kinds of weird bugs in the middle of that release cycle anyway. Jumping to a newish Mimic might not have felt like the best option to escape Lum bugs. Half of the problem of running into bugs like the ones in Lum is that you often need to be able to move back out of them, before moving forward again. There is no guarantee that the developed-in-parallel M point release .0/.1/.2 will have corrective code that fixes the newly introduced errors in Lum, so holding out for the next Lum point will sometimes feel safer. If you wonder why people wait for Oct to have ten or so releases before upgrading to it, meaning they are stuck in something that is unsupported by the time Oct has "proven itself", this would be one of the reasons. For new clusters, I would not mind starting with as late a release as possible. -- May the most significant bit of your life be positive. _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx
