Networker Compatibility Question
Hi,
we have several Versions of Networker Clients installed in our Environment and are about to Upgrade our Server to one of the latest Versions. Which Version I would like to find out with my question.
I've read, that the Data Ontap 8.0x ist compatible with the Networker 7.6.1.x. This is ist the current OS of our NetAppMetrocluster which is backed up by our Networker Server of Version 7.6.1.7 (is to be upgraded, i know).
Are there any Information available about which Networker Server Version I need to backup a Netapp with Data ONTAP 8.1 or 8.1.1 (my storage admin are planning to upgrade our Metrocluster-OS to one of this versions in near future and i have to plan my upgrade of Networker Environment)?
kind regards
Maike Laue

7.6.1.x is no longer support for some time. OnTap8 support (7 mode) is listed in software compatibility guide.

Hi All,
thanks for you input. Our new NetApp Appliance has Data ONTAP 8.1 or 8.1.1 and i can't find any hint which Networker Version is able to back up NDMP from NetApps with this Version.
thanks in advance

Hi Maike,
As per the Support guide, currently ONTAP 8.1 or 8.1.1 are not listed and hence its not inculded in the support list.
May be this will be included in the later version of Networker.
Thank you

Backup for Netapp filers running ontap 8.1 with networker 7.6.3 works without any issues. That is the current configuration we are using.
