[stork-users] Stork Server and Agent versions

[Darren Ankney]

Hi,

I'm glad you were able to get it working.  I don't see any mention of
incompatible changes here:
https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/stork/-/wikis/Releases/Release-notes-1.12.0
 A quick look over the ARM:
https://stork.readthedocs.io/en/v1.12.0/overview.html didn't seem to
show anything either. If it is indeed the case that the versions must
match, then hopefully that will become more clear in the future as you
suggest.

Thank you,

Darren Ankney

Then one day recently the Stork server and the Stork agent were not communicating properly. No config changes were made prior to this new problem but I did run a system update and reboot on the Stork server and I think the Stork server version was updated.

Or is there something else I am missing? Perhaps the Stork server could identify version mismatches with its agents and flag them more visibly either in the web ui or in the log files.
