Should we switch to Gluster 7 on master?

Gluster 7 has been released: https://www.gluster.org/announcing-gluster-7-0/ Given that 7 seems to work better than 6.6 ( https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/GS23RE3A4LRO7G...) , should we switch to 7 on master/4.4? What about 4.3? -- Sandro Bonazzola MANAGER, SOFTWARE ENGINEERING, EMEA R&D RHV Red Hat EMEA <https://www.redhat.com/> sbonazzo@redhat.com <https://www.redhat.com/>*Red Hat respects your work life balance.

Discussed this with Gluster team and the answer was: let's move master to gluster 7. Question for 4.3 still remain, should we backport the change there too?

This also depends on the Gluster team, they will have to support the issues. From storage point of view, we don't have any preferences for Gluster version in storage and we don't depend on any feature added by Gluster 7. Both versions are also not tested by storage QE. Adding Avihay to confirm. Nir
