2045.0. "TruCluster with mixed version of ASE 13. and 1.4" by NNTPD::"Chyan@alf.dec.com" (Chyan,Chia-jen) Tue May 06 1997 14:34

Hi: 
I had a customer had Digital Unix 3.2D with ASE 1.3 and TruCluster installed. 
He's planning to do a rolling upgrade on one cluster member to Digital Unix
4.0
and ASE 1.4. 

However, he will not upgrade the other cluster member until next 3 or 4
monthes.
There's not ASE services configured and Advfs file systems are locally mounted
outside of ASE. Is this is a supported TruCluster configuration with mixed 
ASE 1.3 and ASE 1.4 version ?
Or all customer member had to run exact same version of OS and ASE , although
he did not utilize the ASE failover services.


Thank you in advance.

As I understand it, mixed version mode is only supposed to be used
as a transient step towards same version mode.

Note that you need DU 4.0A for ASE 1.4.
