A financial services company is deploying a new AFF A-series cluster for a low-latency trading application. They are using NVMe/TCP for host connectivity. During the SVM setup, the administrator needs to create the logical interfaces for the NVMe traffic. Which service policy must be associated with the LIFs created on the SVM to properly handle NVMe/TCP traffic?
An administrator is troubleshooting a performance degradation issue on a LUN serving a VMware ESXi datastore. The LUN is hosted on an AFF A400. The administrator suspects that the issue is related to misaligned I/O from the virtual machines. Which TWO ONTAP CLI commands can be used to identify and verify LUN alignment issues? (Select TWO)
**Case Study** **Company**: A biotech research firm, 'GenoSeq Analytics,' is planning a new storage infrastructure for its high-performance computing (HPC) cluster used for genomic sequencing. The current infrastructure is struggling with I/O latency, which is slowing down research. **Current Situation**: They use a 4-node FAS cluster with spinning disks and some Flash Pool aggregates. Connectivity is currently 16Gb FC. The Linux-based HPC nodes run custom analysis applications that generate millions of small, random read/write operations. **Requirements**: The new solution must provide the lowest possible latency for both reads and writes. It must support at least 40Gbps connectivity to the hosts. The solution needs to be scalable for future growth in data processing needs. The existing FC fabric switches are 16Gb and will be replaced. **Constraints**: The budget for the new fabric switches is limited. They want to leverage their existing Ethernet network management expertise. The solution must provide non-disruptive scalability. Given GenoSeq Analytics' requirements and constraints, which solution design is the most appropriate?
A storage administrator is using the `sanlun` utility on a Linux host to verify the LUN configuration. The output of `sanlun lun show` displays multiple paths to the same LUN, but the 'Multipath policy' is listed as 'none'. The application team reports intermittent connectivity drops. What is the most likely cause of this issue?
True or False: When configuring an iSCSI data LIF in ONTAP, assigning a port from a broadcast domain that contains both 1GbE and 10GbE physical ports is a supported best practice for high availability.
An administrator needs to provide SAN LUNs to a multi-tenant environment where different departments must have their storage administration and resources completely isolated from each other on the same physical cluster. The command to create a new isolated environment is `vserver create -vserver __________ -rootvolume-security-style unix -aggregate aggr1 -ns-switch file -rootvolume vol_root`.
A hospital is implementing a new picture archiving and communication system (PACS) on a NetApp SAN. To comply with data retention policies, they need to keep snapshots for 7 years. However, they are concerned about the performance impact of having a large number of snapshots on the active volume. Which NetApp technology should be used to archive snapshots to a secondary, lower-cost storage tier while maintaining the ability to restore data?
During a planned storage failover test, an administrator initiates a `storage failover takeover` command on `node-01`. After several minutes, the command fails. The administrator observes that `node-02` is unable to take over `node-01`'s SAN LIFs. Which configuration issue is the most likely reason for this failure?
A consultant is designing a SAN solution for a customer who requires strict performance guarantees for different applications. A 'Gold' tier requires a minimum of 5000 IOPS, a 'Silver' tier requires a minimum of 2000 IOPS, and a 'Bronze' tier for development should be limited to a maximum of 1000 IOPS. Which ONTAP feature should be implemented to enforce these service levels?
What is the primary purpose of creating a port set in an ONTAP FCP configuration?
