Betreff: RE: upgrade to 8.0.2

 

Thanks for all the great input. After weighing all the opinions and doing some more reading, I decided to play it safe and upgrade to 7.3.6. We don’t need the new features of v8 yet, and it looks like there will be more feature stability in the 8.1 stream. The 7.3.6 upgrade was successful, along with all disk/shelf/boot firmwares. I did download the disk firmware separately and allow them to upgrade in the background overnight before upgrading the system, so this made the upgrade much smoother.

 

Thanks,

Moshe

Much along the same lines, IPv6 got tabled in 8.0 (IIRC, to return in 8.1).

 

Overall, stability/quality of 8.0.1P5 (our current general upgrade target) has been great, no major blockers that aren't also present in older releases. 

 

To the OP's question -- go for it. Even without new features it makes sense; 7.2 is costing you a lot in both performance and bug exposure.

I suspect not many use it, but IPSec is also not supported in 8.x

8.0.x does not support TLS

8.0.x does not support Snaplock

If these features are important to you, then go to the latest 7.3.x.

 

Disks and shelves should get upgraded as part of the ONTAP upgrade.  I would recommend checking to make sure your system firmware is appropriate for the ONTAP version you upgrade to.  If it isn’t, then upgrade it before upgrading ONTAP.

We are currently running 7.2.6.1P9 on our 3160, and I want to upgrade to 7.3.3 or later. Any reason not to go all the way to 8.0.2? My hardware is all supported (finally got rid of those old disk shelves).

 

And if we’re upgrading, do you usually upgrade disk and shelf FW as well? Is this a requirement? I seem to be one version behind on most of my FW right now.

 

Thanks,

 

Moshe
