During expansion planning for a 10-node cluster running NetApp ONTAP 9.

NetApp ONTAP 9.14.1 supports up to a 16-node cluster for SAN and NAS configurations. Given a current 10-node cluster, you can add up to 6 additional nodes to reach the maximum supported node count. This expansion capability ensures scalability for growing storage needs while maintaining high availability and performance.
