hi all,

i would second this request to upvote this. the fact that 4.1 support
was dropped in a subsubminor update (4.2.3.5 to 4.3.26 afaik) was
already pretty bad to discover, but at the very least there should be an
option to reenable it.

i'm also interested why this was removed (or actively prevented to
enable). i can understand that eg pnfs is not support, bu basic protocol
features wrt HA are a must have.
only with 4.1 are we able to do ces+ganesha failover without IO error,
something that should be basic feature nowadays.
