Anyone running 8.0.1 on a fas204? if so any issues? I really would like to use the VAAI capabilities with our VMware infrastructure and can't wait to move to this latest release.

We installed 8.0.1 RC3 on our 2040. No problems. We don't have a vmware shop, so I can address that.

Oops ! It is on there.
I'd read through once and didn't see the 2XXX systems.
I hope this response has been helpful to you.

Checking AutoSupport, I found more than 200 FAS2040s that are running Data ONTAP 8.0.1 7-Mode. While I don't have information about any specific customer deployments, the sheer numbers are an indication of the quality and stability of the release overall and usage with FAS2040.
Data ONTAP 8.0.1 7-Mode field adoption and customer experience meet GA criteria, and were it not for additional RC releases needed to complete support for the new FAS/V6200 and 3200 systems, the release would have already been declared GA.
I encourage you move ahead with plans to upgrade to Data ONTAP 8.0.1 7-Mode.
