A company has finished migrating all data to NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP. An application administrator needs to make sure that there are no interruptions in service for this new NFSv4 application.

Which feature must be registered on the Azure subscription to reduce unplanned failover times?

  1. multipath HA
  2. high availability
  3. fault tolerance
  4. redundancy

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP provides a High Availability (HA) configuration, which is crucial for ensuring that services remain available even during unplanned outages. When using NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP in environments such as Azure, ensuring continuous availability, especially for NFSv4 workloads, is vital.

The "High Availability" (HA) feature creates a pair of ONTAP instances configured as an active-passive cluster. This setup reduces failover times by allowing one node to take over if the other fails, providing minimal service disruption. HA is designed to manage failovers automatically, which is essential for applications requiring constant availability, such as those using NFSv4. In Azure, enabling this feature via the appropriate subscription registration ensures that when an unexpected failure occurs, the system will automatically failover to the standby node, minimizing downtime and ensuring that the application continues to function smoothly without manual intervention.

In this case, "multipath HA," "fault tolerance," and "redundancy" are related concepts, but they don't directly address the specific need to register and enable the high-availability feature in Azure. Registering HA on the Azure subscription ensures that the Cloud Volumes ONTAP can perform its failover processes effectively, keeping the application running.



A company just negotiated a Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC). They want to use NetApp BlueXP data services, but they have no additional budget for the rest of the year.

Which two licensing models can the company use? (Choose two.)

  1. Keystone
  2. PayGo
  3. BYOL
  4. Private Offer

Answer(s): B,D

Explanation:

For companies that have negotiated a Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) and want to use NetApp BlueXP data services without additional budget for the rest of the year, two licensing models can be used:

PayGo (B): This is the Pay-As-You-Go licensing model, which allows the customer to use Azure credits from their MACC for NetApp services. It aligns with the company's desire to leverage their Azure budget without incurring additional costs.

Private Offer (D): Through Azure's Private Offer model, customers can negotiate custom pricing and leverage their Azure commitment to pay for NetApp services, aligning with their existing MACC.

Keystone (A) is a subscription-based model for on-premises or hybrid environments, and BYOL (C) (Bring Your Own License) requires an upfront purchase of licenses, which would not align with the company's scenario of having no additional budget.



A customer wants to set up disaster recovery in the Central US region for an existing Azure NetApp Files production workload in the East US2 region.

Which feature should the customer use?

  1. cross-zone replication
  2. SnapMirror replication
  3. SyncMirror replication
  4. cross-region replication

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

For setting up disaster recovery in the Central US region for an existing Azure NetApp Files workload in the East US2 region, the customer should use cross-region replication. This feature allows data replication across different Azure regions, providing a robust disaster recovery solution by keeping a secondary copy of the data in a geographically separate location.

Cross-zone replication (A) deals with replication within the same region across availability zones. SnapMirror (B) and SyncMirror (C) are ONTAP-specific replication technologies but are not directly applicable to Azure NetApp Files in this scenario.



A customer deploys an Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP file system and creates an NFS export that a Linux client mounted. The Linux client shows that the volume is full. The customer's AWS dashboard shows that the file system has several TiBs of available SSD capacity.

What does the customer need to do to resolve the volume full issue?

  1. Enable volume autosizing.
  2. Increase the capacity of the file system.
  3. Delete snapshots to reclaim space.
  4. Enable tiering of cold data to object.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The issue where the Linux client shows that the NFS volume is full, despite the AWS dashboard showing available capacity in the Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP file system, suggests that the allocated volume size within ONTAP is smaller than the total capacity available. To resolve this, the customer should enable volume autosizing. Autosizing allows the volume to automatically increase in size as needed, preventing issues where the volume becomes full while the underlying file system still has available storage.

Increasing the capacity of the file system (B) is not necessary since the file system already has free space. Deleting snapshots (C) can free up some space, but autosizing is a more efficient solution. Tiering cold data (D) addresses long-term storage management but won't resolve the immediate issue of the volume being full.



A customer has several NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP instances across multiple cloud providers. They need to run some of the Cloud Volumes ONTAP instances on-premises.

Which solution should the customer use?

  1. VMware Cloud
  2. AWS Outpost
  3. Google Anthos
  4. Azure Stack

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

If a customer needs to run some of their NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP instances on-premises, the best solution would be Azure Stack. Azure Stack extends Azure cloud capabilities to on-premises environments and supports hybrid workloads, including those based on Cloud Volumes ONTAP.

Other options like VMware Cloud (A), AWS Outpost (B), and Google Anthos (C) are cloud extensions but are not directly integrated with Cloud Volumes ONTAP in the same way as Azure Stack, which provides a native extension of Azure services to on-premises infrastructure.
