NOTE: These changes are generic - they should be applied to all new hardware platforms introduced with ONTAP 9.10.1 and later.

Based on your note, it looks like anything running 9.10.1 and later, not just introduced with 9.10.1 and later. Correct? Is a link to the ONTAP topic acceptable?

andris-ntap commented 1 day ago

You can limit to models introduced in 9.10.1 and later. If the system was initially using older ONTAP, the licenses would be in the legacy format, even after ONTAP upgrades.
