https://community.netapp.com/t5/Data-Protection/SnapDrive-Support/m-p/154805#M12761 <P>I have not been able to find any official announcements from Netapp on the state of SnapDrive. It appears that SnapDrive is no longer listed as compatible with the newer version of ONTAP. Is the expectation that everything should be migrated to SnapCenter for the provisioning and administration of LUNs going forward?</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>We still have a number of servers with SnapDrive on them, and I'm wondering if I need to convert these over to SnapCenter. What's the process for doing this? Uninstall SnapDrive, then install SnapCenter? Vice versa? I can't find any guidance from Netapp on this.</P> Wed, 04 Jun 2025 11:17:09 GMT CHARLES_PEARSON 2025-06-04T11:17:09Z https://community.netapp.com/t5/Data-Protection/SnapDrive-Support/m-p/154805#M12761 <P>I have not been able to find any official announcements from Netapp on the state of SnapDrive.

However, If you are using SnapDrive as standalone product for storage provisiong and snapshot management then you will be required to transition to SnapCenter.</P> <P><BR />This thread covers information around the similar uery:<BR /><A href="https://community.netapp.com/t5/Data-ONTAP-Discussions/Ontap-9-5-and-snapdrive/td-p/149247" target="_blank">https://community.netapp.com/t5/Data-ONTAP-Discussions/Ontap-9-5-and-snapdrive/td-p/149247</A></P> <P><BR />Thanks!</P> Fri, 06 Mar 2020 22:04:11 GMT https://community.netapp.com/t5/Data-Protection/SnapDrive-Support/m-p/154811#M12762 Ontapforrum 2020-03-06T22:04:11Z
