Multi Active MDS on old kernel client (<4.14)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello!

The documentation on kernel client features states: "The feature has been
supported since the Luminous release. It is recommended to use Linux kernel
clients >= 4.14 when there are multiple active MDS."

My question is: what is the actual impact of using an old (3.10) client
with a multi-mds FS?

I used a 3.10 client to do some reads and writes of metadata pinned to
different MDSs, and it all ostensibly worked fine.

Is it purely a performance problem? Or is there a more serious issue
lurking that my simple tests would not reveal.

Thanks!
