Long time fedora-ds user here with a few questions about upgrading
and
hoping knowledgeable folks can provide some feedback.
I am currently running Fedora DS on Centos 4.7 and Centos 5 servers. All
servers run v1.0.1.
1) Can the Centos 4 machines running v1.0.1 upgrade to the latest v1.1.3
without any problems?
Yes, but you'll have to build it yourself - we do not have pre-built
binaries for el4
2) Is v1.1.3 even supported on Centos 4? Are there rpm's for it?
There are no rpms for el4 - you'll have to build it yourself.
3) When upgrading Fedora DS versions, must they all be upgraded
simultaneously?
No. One at a time is fine. Replication should just work regardless of
the version.
4) Say one server is running v1.0.1 and another server is running
1.1.3,
can data be replicated from a v1.0.1 server to a v1.1.3 server? How
about vice-a-versa?
Yes, no problems.
3 of our 4 Fedora DS servers can be upgraded to run Centos 5 w/
Fedora
DS v1.1.3 but we'd like to keep one server running Centos 4.7 for the
time being due to legacy software requirements
