Percona server Master-Slave version query

perconapercona-serverreplication

I have a master with percona server (5.6.25) running in RHEL host and a slave of the same version. I'm facing some corruption issues in replication slave and I'm thinking of rebuilding the slave from scratch.

Just a query, can I have the slave of version 5.6.31 instead of the original master version? What could be the issues that could occur?

Best Answer

yes, it will work. generally it is recommended that slaves be the same or of higher version than its master.
