Hello All,

Our customers are increasingly requesting to update their NetApp storage to Ontap 9.17.1. In addition, new systems are increasingly being delivered with 9.17, and we need to perform a downgrade. (if still supported by the hardware)

Are there any plans to release Ontap 9.17.1 or even 9.18.1?

 

Grateful for any help!

Hallo ​@CV_GK ,

es geht weniger um eine spezielle Umgebung, eher um eine generelle Frage. In der Regel gehen unsere Kunden auf das aktuellste LTS (wenn es alter als 3 Monate ist), slso Release 40. Es wäre sicher kein grundsätzliches Problem auf eine neuer Version zu gehen, wenn damit 9.17 supportet wäre.

Hello,

It's less about a specific environment and more about a general question. As a rule, our customers use the latest LTS (if it's older than three months), i.e. Release 40. It would certainly not be a fundamental problem to switch to a newer version if it supported 9.17.
