[Ocfs2-users] Different versions of ocfs2 and Kernel

[Sunil Mushran]

I would not recommend that for 1.1.7 to 1.2.1. While neither
the on-disk format nor the messaging has changed since 1.0,
there have been other internal changes which could cause
problems.

The recommendation is documented in the faq... under "Upgrading to 1.2.1".
