A financial institution is deploying a new ONTAP 9.10 cluster for a latency-sensitive database application using NVMe/FC. The security team mandates that host initiators should only be able to discover and connect to specific, pre-assigned target ports on the ONTAP cluster. Which ONTAP SAN feature must be configured to enforce this policy?
During a pre-deployment assessment for a new iSCSI SAN, a consultant reviews the network switch configuration. The switches are configured with a standard MTU of 1500, but the ONTAP cluster and host initiators will be configured for jumbo frames (MTU 9000). What is the expected outcome when the host attempts to connect to the iSCSI target?
An administrator is configuring a new Linux host (RHEL 8) for FCP access to an ONTAP cluster. After installing the NetApp Host Utilities, they need to ensure that the multipathing configuration is optimized for ONTAP. Which configuration file is primarily modified by the Host Utilities to set the correct device parameters for DM-Multipath?
A storage administrator observes that a volume containing iSCSI LUNs is consistently running low on space due to a large number of Snapshot copies. The administrator needs to guarantee that hosts can continue writing to their LUNs, even if it means automatically deleting Snapshot copies. Which volume option must be configured to achieve this behavior?
True or False: When configuring an ONTAP SVM for NVMe/FC access, you must create an igroup and add the host's WWPNs to it before mapping a namespace.
An architect is designing a multi-tenant SAN environment. To ensure strict traffic isolation between tenants who share the same physical FC switches, what is the most critical configuration to implement on the switches? ```mermaid graph TD subgraph Tenant_A HostA1[Host A1] HostA2[Host A2] end subgraph Tenant_B HostB1[Host B1] HostB2[Host B2] end subgraph ONTAP_Cluster SVMA[SVM A] SVMB[SVM B] end HostA1 & HostA2 --> Fabric[FC Fabric] HostB1 & HostB2 --> Fabric Fabric --> SVMA & SVMB ```
A hospital is planning to migrate its legacy SAN array to a new NetApp AFF system. The legacy array contains hundreds of LUNs that need to be moved with minimal downtime. The implementation engineer plans to use the Foreign LUN Import (FLI) feature. Which two prerequisites are required to use FLI? (Select TWO)
A consultant is performing a health check on a customer's FCP environment. They discover that the zones on the Brocade switches have been configured with multiple initiators and multiple targets in each zone. What is the primary risk associated with this configuration?
An administrator needs to create a 2TB LUN for a database that will be thinly provisioned. The LUN will reside in a volume that also has space reservation disabled (`-space-guarantee none`). What is the immediate result of creating this LUN?
A VMware administrator is using the NetApp Virtual Storage Console (VSC) to provision a new datastore. They choose the 'Thick Provision Eager Zeroed' format for the VMDK. How does this selection translate to the LUN and volume settings on the backend ONTAP system?
