Well that's an interesting comment... Are you stating that if the server is
running 3.7.x, then these performance xlators I'm having issues with where
the client is 3.6.0 won't have said issues?
No, sorry, that is not what I meant. The next versions of RHEL and RHEV-H
will have new versions of the glusterfs packages. Those packages will be
based on glusterfs-3.7 and will be compatible with the community 3.7
release. The new version of RHGS-3.1 (Everglades) is scheduled to be
released later this (northern hemisphere) summer.

When it is included in the next RHEV-H images/media, I do not know. I
think RHEV provides relatively regular updates though (but if you are a
RHEV user, you probably track that closer than me).

For now, the op-version hacking way is most likely what you need.

Ah, if it is on the RHEV-H and not a RHEL-H (or however that is called)
you definitely are very restricted... Messing around with the op-version
is not really nice, but that might be the easiest approach indeed. Atin
surely is the one of the right guys to help out with that.

Fortunately, the next Red Hat Gluster Storage packages will be based on
glusterfs-3.7 with only minor (and compatible!) changes. This is
supposed to prevent difficulties like this that are caused by the RHGS
glusterfs-3.6 version.

so 3.6.0.53 isn't going to be opversion 30600 like stated here?

I'd assume the opver would remain the same even with their patches.

I want the server cluster opversion and the client opversion to match so
certain performance translators can be used, currently 3.6.3 on the server
and 3.6.0.53 on the client blocks performance translators such as
write-behind.
If you do not use the Red Hat Gluster Storage product, you will not
really get support on the glusterfs-client packages in RHEL either. The
combination of the two versions is just not (well) tested. You are
probably better of to use the community glusterfs client packages for
accessing the Gluster volumes too.

Have you considered this approach? If you want the full support on the
gluster client side, you will need to use the Red Hat Gluster Storage
product on the storage servers. Any difficulties with deploying or
packaging the RHEL/RHGS product combination should get discussed with
your Red Hat support contacts. They should be able to explain how to do
it right, and/or get fixes in an updated version.

Thanks,

The client would be the lesser version in this case. Server @ 3.6.3,
Client @ 3.6.0
The only way to get them to match is to use redhat gluster storage where
you have RHEV hypervisors... which is a bit annoying.
Well if you are talking about rhs 3.6.0.53 as a client then definitely the
op version is not 30600 and also my question is why would you want to bump
down your server's cluster op version?

Scenario-

Gluster bricks running Gluster 3.6.3, RHEL clients running RH
provided gluster 3.6.0.53 ( no way to change this, operating version 30600
I presume ).
We do not encourage to use mix and match of upstream and downstream
versions. IIRC, op-version of 3.6.0.53 must be 30004 (please confirm)
which means client is higher version than server which is again not a
recommended setup.
If we create a new cluster can the op-version be set down to 30600 on
the 3.6.3 bricks? - Currently - operating-version=30603 by default.
