Our running SDE 10.0 server with most all our clients using ArcGIS 10.2.2. I upgrade my client development computer to ArcGIS 10.4.1. I'm able to add simple feature classes into ArcMap without any issue. But, when I try to add a feature class within a Geometric Network is get the following message.
"Error opening feature class
The feature class participates in a geometric network that could not be opened.
This SDE server does not support this client or operation."
I'm assuming that this is a compatibility issue. Saying that, the question is,
What to version of SDE server do we need to upgrade in order to be backward compatible to obtain geometric network feature classes?

It looks like 10.3.x clients are the "newest" client that you can use to connect to an enterprise geodatabase at v 10.0.x

I will also say that your enterprise geodatabase is on an unsupported version being on 10.0.x
