Server version and client version.

Hello

I would like to know if it's possible to use a client version of vault older or newer from server version ?
For example, can I have a Vault Client version 4.0 and a Vault server 3.1 ? Or a Vault Client version 3.1 and a Vault server 4.0 ?

Thanks for advance

Jean-Pierre

Major releases won't work together, only maintenance releases will.

For example, Vault 3.1.5 and Vault 3.1.9 will connect fine between client and server. Vault 3.1.5 and Vault 3.5.0, will not connect. Vault 4.x will only connect with Vault 4.0.0-4.0.6 (or any 4.0.x).

The first 2 numbers in the release number needs to match but the third number doesn't need to match.

You will always get best results when the client and server exactly match, so if something isn't working well for you, the first recommendation is to have the client and server match exactly in versions.
