Description
Proposed title of this feature request
Method to track client Ceph versions that have connected to cluster.
What is the nature and description of the request?
Customer would like to begin using vary_r tunables on their cluster and is aware that they have over one thousand RBD clients connected there cluster running a mix of dumpling and firefly versions. vary_r tunables are not supported below firelfy so in order to validate which clients are running dumpling in order to upgrade them they are looking for a way to track which Ceph versions their clients are running and would like the cluster to store this information, possibly on a monitor.
Why does the customer need this?
If a monitor can store the ceph version of clinets that connect to the cluster it would be much easier for the customer to plan upgrades on thousands of clients for issues similar to the one mentioned above.
How would the customer like to achieve this?
Customer would like something stored or logged on a monitor to reference the clients versions that have connected to the cluster.
