My apologies I meant 2.5.34 not 2.6.34.  We'd like to get up to 2.10.4 which is what our clients are running.  Recently we upgraded our cluster to CentOS7 which necessitated the client upgrade.  Our storage servers though stayed behind on 2.5.34.

Paul,

2.6.34 is a kernel version. What version of Lustre are you at now? Some updates are easier than others.

    We have some old large scale Lustre installs that are running
    2.6.34 and we want to get these up to the latest version of
    Lustre.  I was curious if people in this group have any experience
    with doing this and if they could share them. How do you handle
    upgrades like this?  How much time does it take?  What are the
    pitfalls?  How do you manage it with minimal customer
    interruption? Should we just write off upgrading and stand up new
    servers that are on the correct version (in which case we need to
    transfer the several PB's worth of data over to the new system)?

    Thanks for your wisdom.
