[cdwg] [wc-discuss] Lustre 2.2.0 released

[Peter Jones]

Andrei

Lustre 2.1.x is our current maintenance release stream - see 
http://wiki.whamcloud.com/display/PUB/Lustre+Releases for more details.

I do not think that sites who are interested in running Lustre 2.2 
should necessarily reconsider their plans in light of this.

Yes there are bugs in Lustre 2.2, but there are also bugs on older 
releases.

Not every bug is relevant to every site.

Bugs that are reported against Lustre 2.2 are getting fixed and landed 
for September's upcoming Lustre 2.3 release and so anyone running Lustre 
2.2 could apply a patch if necessary.

I hope that this helps clarify things.

Regards

Peter
