We are in the process of refreshing the Lustre roadmap ahead of my presentation at LUG 2014. If you have any firm plans for new Lustre feature developement that you plan to upstream into Lustre 2.7 or 2.8, now is the time to tell us! Just to be clear, we are not assembling a wish list for new features. For the roadmap we only want new features that you have first hand knowledge that your organization will be developing, and has a reasonably high confidence that it will complete on time. Keep in mind that it is far better to list a feature further out on the schedule and deliver it early than it is to list it early and fail to deliver on time. Please send your items to the list, or have them ready to go by (rescheduled) CDWG call on Thursday, March 13.

We will be taking 1.8.6 off-line for an "upgrade" ( bare metal reinstall of OS and lustre!) to 2.X. I see quite a bit of activity on different releases which is a confusing as to decide which release to install. What is the main 'stable' release that is suggested for a new 2.X installation? 2.5? We are interested in looking at the newer tools such as lester, robinhood, latest collectl, and the HSM bits. The interconnects are Mellanox QDR to a very finicky IBM IB switch and fibre back end. The OS is going to be RHEL or CentOs but does not matter however we would prefer to use the lustre RPMs if possible so 6.4/6.5 I am guessing. We have two MDS available on this system as well. It is not a requirement that the 1.8.8 be able to talk to 2.X through Linux gateway routers but things change and we may need to have 1.8.8 cross mount the new 2.x. Does that have any bearing on which 2.X version we decide to land on?

If you want to keep the door open to possibly interoperating to a 1.8.x release in the future then 2.4.3 might be the best bet, but once you explore HSM you will need 2.5.x. At this point in time, the information that I have suggests 2.4.x releases are being quite widely used, so a conservative approach might be to move initially to 2.4.3 and then upgrade to a 2.5.x release when you are ready to use HSM. Let us know how you get on!
