Hi
We need to view rule usage which shows the hit-count of each rule is it possible to view this option in the os 8.0.10

You could play with custom reports and count sessions per rule name for a given period of time (assuming you have traffic logs for that period).
But proper rule hit counts were introduced in 8.1.0

As @santonic mentioned you'll have to do the old work around of creating a custom report to view this information, which is only really helpful for short time periods or viewing specific rules over a period of time. Larger installs will run into issue with this as there is no easy way to view the count associated with all of the security policies with the limitations of the custom reports.
You can also build this out progamatically with the API easily enough to feed the information into a simple database to create reports for hit counts as you need them.
I'd say that you can't easily view this information without updating to 8.1 where the feature is actually built into the OS. I also wouldn't really recommend running 8.1 yet unless you have a lab environement that you can mirror your production system in and verify that all of the features that you are using actually function as required.
