Hi Vlad,

I'm still confused of gluster releases. :(
Is 3.13 an official gluster release? It's not mentioned in www.gluster.org/release-schedule

Which is more stable 3.13.2 or 3.12.6 or 4.1.5?

3.13.2 was released in Jan and no minor releases since then..So, I expect it's a stable release. or maybe noone has used it enough to report bugs?

I understand we may see bugs even in the most stable version while using it. I'm looking for a version thats safe to use with least chance of corrupting or loosing our files.

I'm set to test 3.13.2 tiering feature, but have my thoughts about if 3.12.6 or 4.1.5 should be tested instead.

Regards,
Jeevan.

If you doing replica - start with 5, run your load on it. You can always fallback to 3.12 or 4. It is not like your files will be gone.
With distributed might be harder, files will still be on the bricks but you will have to consolidate them or copy in to new volume after downgrade.
Documentation is all the same.

Hi Vlad,

Can gluster 4.1.5 too be used for production? There's no documentation for gluster 4.

Jeevan.

Hi All,

I see gluster 3 has reached end of life and gluster 5 has just been introduced.

Is gluster 4.1.5 stable enough for production deployment? I see by default gluster docs point  to v3  only  and there  are no gluster docs  for 4 or 5.  Why so? And I'm mainly looking for a stable gluster tiering feature and Kernek NFS support. I faced few issues with tiering in 3.14 and so thinking if I should switch to 4.1.5, as it will be a production deployment.

Thank you.

Regards,
Jeevan.
