Re: [Condor-users] Ticket #1721 (hyperthreading bug for Win) resolved in 7.8.0?

["John (TJ) Knoeller" <johnkn@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The fix for #1721 went into 7.8.0.

As for mixed version pools.  While we don't officially support that,  
but we work very
hard to make sure that it works, and we often do mixed version pools 
ourselves.  It happens
a lot when flocking.

In particular, we aren't aware of any reason why 7.6.8 worker nodes 
wouldn't work with 7.8.0
central manager.    Of course, some 7.8 features will be unavailable, 
Some of the machinery for
partitionable slots depends on changes in the execute nodes, as does 
support for IPv6, etc.
