It seems that mixing different versions also seems to work, at least
on a small scale, light load, non-intensive app. I mixed up pacific
and reef, on Ubuntu 22.04, 24.04 and Debian Stable. Nothing in the
Ceph documentation says "don't do this".

I did experience some file corruption, but I don't know if I can blame
Ceph for that. FWIW, I think I used a Ceph config far outside the norm
of conventional use: it mixed OS'es, it mixed Ceph releases, and it
(initially) had one mon, one host and 2 OSD's and a week later three
mons, two hosts, 4 OSD's, and later still three hosts and 6 OSD's and
through-out this extended upgrade period, I was copying files into
Ceph. I'm 99% sure that no one in the Ceph testing community tests
setups like this, so maybe there's a bug. But I'm also using
consumer-grade h/w so maybe the h/w is to blame. Cosmic rays, you
know.
