I've seen issues with clients reconnects on older
kernels, yeah. They
sometimes get stuck after a network failure

In the Nautilus manual it recommends >= 4.14 kernel for multiple active

multiple MDSes? We are in the process of upgrading the clients, but at
times overrun the capacity of a single MDS server.
I don't think this is documented specifically; you'd have to go
through the git logs. Talked with the team and 4.14 was the upstream
kernel when we marked multi-MDS as stable, with the general stream of
ongoing fixes that always applies there.
There aren't any known issues that will cause file consistency to
break or anything; I'd be more worried about clients having issues
reconnecting when their network blips or an MDS fails over.

MULTIPLE ACTIVE METADATA SERVERS
<
https://docs.ceph.com/docs/nautilus/cephfs/kernel-features/#multiple-active…
The feature has been supported since the Luminous release. It is
recommended to use Linux kernel clients >= 4.14 when there are multiple
active MDS.
Thank you,
