Why each option
The FAS8000 series supports a maximum cluster size of 24 nodes, which is the largest supported configuration for that platform family.
NetApp FAS8000 series clusters scale up to 24 nodes, making it one of the largest cluster configurations in the FAS product line, designed for high-capacity enterprise SAN and NAS workloads.
8 nodes is well below the actual platform maximum; the FAS8000 series was architected for large-scale deployments that far exceed this limit.
A 4-node limit applies to smaller FAS entry-level platforms, not the high-end FAS8000 series.
2 nodes describes a minimum HA pair configuration, not the maximum cluster node count for FAS8000.
