[GIUSEPPE_FERRARA]

Hi All,

anyone know where I can find the matrix compatibility of all Client OS with Data Ontap-7mode?

I have to know wich OS are certified to be managed with V6250 and V6280.

Hi Giuseppe,

You can find relevant info here:

Client OS compatibility is the same for FAS & V-Series.

I just tried to use matrix tool but I didn’t fine any info about compatibility between Guest OS and Data Ontap.

For example I need to know if Data Ontap 8.0.5 is certified with Sun Solaris 8 and 9.

Can you help me?

Thanks

Solaris 8 and 9 are out of vendor support for quite some time.

Thanks aborzenkov,

I need all compatibility matrix to understand the integration of data ontap with an environment that contains all major operating system (solaris 8 and 9 too).

Thanks

If you are talking about using SAN protocol (iSCSI or FC), IMT clearly shows that Solaris 8 and 9 are not supported with ONTAP 8.0.5 (Solaris 10 is supported though)

Same in NFS client matrix.

It is possible that these Solaris versions are still present for older Data ONTAP.

I found all information on matrix compatibility tool ty ☺

However, just for info, Solaris 9 (FC and iSCSI) is supported on v8.1 7-Mode. Solaris 8 on the previous 6.x version.

Thank you all.
