[remr1n]

hi all

we are replacing our old FAS systems with C250, i wanted to get some insight from you guys on wether i should go ahead with installing 9.13 or 9.14?

which is more stable? have there been any bugs or some head scratching things on either of the OS?

thanks!

Do you know of some non-trivial s/w packages without bugs? Please do share!

I haven't been able to find any.

https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap/index.html has a list of new (and deprecated) features and a link to Release Notes where you can find about known issues and limitations.

hello:

     If you have a need for new features, important security considerations, and compatibility issues have been resolved, then you can choose version 9.14; If you're more concerned about the stability and maturity of your system, or if you're not sure about a new release, then 9.13 may be a better choice. It is recommended that you consult with NetApp's technical support team or relevant professionals for further communication and consultation before making a decision.The following two articles are an introduction to the features of these two versions, which may be helpful to you
