Hello!

I'd like to ask if gluster 3.0.0 is backward compatible with 2.0.x
version? So can I mount 2.0.x cluster with 3.0.0?
Can I migrate cluster nodes 1-by-one, upgrading versions on the single
host at once?

No. 3.0 is not backward compatible with 2.0.x. Both the client and server should be of same version. However the backend directories need not change while migrating to 3.0.0. You can just reinstall all the clients and servers, restart the servers and mount all the clients.
 

Just attempted to mount cluster as gluster 3.0.0 client (my existing
cluster, based on 2.0.4) using the fstab mount - i do store the single
.vol file on the cluster node.
in the fstab i do use the following setting, which works fine with 2.0.4

10.177.4.15     /cluster        glusterfs  defaults,noauto  0  0

but the 3.0.0 gives me the following error:

anton-h:/# mount cluster
syntax error in line 1: "option"
(allowed tokens are 'volume', 'type', 'subvolumes', 'option', 'end-volume')
error in parsing volume file given by server 10.177.4.15
exiting

My cluster consists out of 6 nodes, each of 2x bricks - so I have
1-to-one replication.

Cheers,
Anton.
