We have been running 8.10.151 on five HA pairs for over a year now without any code related issues. There are currently somewhere between 9000 and 9500 APs ranging from 2700s to 9130s. We were just made aware of bug CSCvx98176 by our SE, but have decided not to upgrade to 8.10.162 without seeing the bug.

Hi all, After a tumultuous series of code versions, awhile back we settled on 8.5.151.0 and hung on to it like grim death because it was very, very reliable. Given that 8.5 code goes end-of-support at end of 2021, combined with latest rounds of announced vulnerabilities, I’m looking for recommendations in the 8.10 train based on wanting stability above all. We have 3800s and 3700s currently, likely to stay that way through the next academic year. Has anyone found an 8.10. code version for the 8540 that supports the 3700 and 3800 while providing good daily stability?
