Question 1

An associate wants to send data between Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP and Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3).

Which NetApp BlueXP feature should they use?



Answer : A

BlueXP copy and sync is a NetApp BlueXP feature that enables customers to send data between Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP and Amazon S3. BlueXP copy and sync allows customers to create data transfer relationships between different storage sources and destinations, including FSx for ONTAP and S3. BlueXP copy and sync supports both one-time and recurring data transfers, with options to schedule, monitor, and manage the data transfer operations. BlueXP copy and sync helps customers to migrate, backup, archive, or distribute their data across different storage environments.Reference=Copy and sync data,Copy and sync data between FSx for ONTAP and S3,Copy and sync data overview


Question 2

A customer needs to accelerate data access of a hot volume to multiple remote sites.

Which NetApp ONTAP feature simplifies file distribution, reduces WAN latency, and lowers WAN bandwidth cost?



Answer : B

FlexCache technology is a feature of NetApp ONTAP that enables you to create a cache volume on a remote cluster and populate it with data from a source volume on a different cluster. The cache volume can serve read requests from local clients, reducing the WAN latency and bandwidth consumption. The cache volume can also be configured to write back to the source volume, ensuring data consistency and availability. FlexCache technology simplifies file distribution by allowing you to create multiple cache volumes across different sites and regions, and manage them from a single interface.Reference=FlexCache volumes overview - NetApp,FlexCache volumes: Simplify file distribution and reduce WAN latency - NetApp,FlexCache volumes: Use cases and benefits - NetApp.


Question 3

A company has a NetApp ONTAP solution deployed in a data center. The current solution has a large amount of inactive dat

a. An administrator needs to free space in the data center without affecting access to the data.

Which NetApp technology accomplishes this task?



Answer : C

BlueXP tiering is a service that extends your data center to the cloud by automatically tiering inactive data from on-premises ONTAP clusters to object storage. This frees valuable space on the cluster for more workloads, without making changes to the application layer. BlueXP tiering can reduce costs in your data center and enables you to switch from a CAPEX model to an OPEX model. BlueXP tiering leverages the capabilities of FabricPool, which is a NetApp Data Fabric technology that enables automated tiering of data to low-cost object storage.Active (hot) data remains on the local tier (on-premises ONTAP aggregates), while inactive (cold) data is moved to the cloud tier --- all while preserving ONTAP data efficiencies12.Reference=Learn about BlueXP tiering,Cloud Tiering: Free up Space on On-Premises Storage Systems


Question 4

On which parameter is the NetApp BlueXP observability pricing model based?



Answer : D

NetApp BlueXP observability pricing model is based on the number of managed units (MUs) that you wish to monitor. A managed unit is a logical grouping of resources that can be monitored by Cloud Insights, such as a virtual machine, a Kubernetes pod, a storage volume, or a database instance. The number of managed units is not bound to specific device types, giving you the flexibility to re-deploy in line with your business and infrastructure needs. You can choose from different subscription plans based on the number of managed units and the duration of the contract.Reference=Cloud Insights: Infrastructure and Application Monitoring,NetApp Cloud Insights-Monitor and Optimize Your Hybrid Infrastructure


Question 5

A storage administrator is asked to provision storage on an E-Series system. Which disk layout type provides the fastest rebuild time after disk failure?



Answer : A

= Dynamic Disk Pools (DDP) is a disk layout type that provides the fastest rebuild time after disk failure on an E-Series system. DDP distributes data, parity, and spare capacity across a pool of disks, instead of using dedicated parity and spare disks. This enables faster and more efficient reconstruction of data in the event of a disk failure, as well as better performance and load balancing. DDP also reduces the risk of data loss due to multiple disk failures, as it can tolerate any number of disk failures up to the pool's protection level.Reference=SANtricity OS Dynamic Disk Pools | TR-4652 - NetApp,How to increase priority for disk reconstruction - NetApp Knowledge Base.


Question 6

A company wants to protect the files on their NetApp ONTAP based storage system from ransomware using an external process. If an attack is detected, a Snapshot copy is created, and the Microsoft Active Directory (AD) user access is blocked.

Which ONTAP feature enables this functionality?



Answer : D

FPolicy is an ONTAP feature that enables this functionality.FPolicy is a file access notification framework that allows external applications to monitor and control file access on ONTAP storage systems1.FPolicy can be used to protect files from ransomware by integrating with third-party solutions that use user behavioral analytics (UBA) to detect abnormal activity and trigger actions such as creating a Snapshot copy and blocking the AD user access23.FPolicy can also be activated with a single click from BlueXP or ONTAP System Manager to protect against common ransomware extensions4.Reference=1:FPolicy overview - NetApp,2:Prevent ransomware spread with ONTAP automatic ransomware protection,3:Fighting Ransomware, Part Six: Remediation,4:Proactive ransomware protection---automated with ONTAP - NetApp.


Question 7

Which technology uses on-premises bare-metal hardware to abstract the operating system from the underlying hardware?



Answer : B

A hypervisor is a software layer that enables multiple operating systems to run on the same physical hardware by creating virtual machines (VMs) that are isolated from each other. A hypervisor abstracts the operating system from the underlying hardware, allowing for greater flexibility, efficiency, and scalability of the virtualized environment. NetApp supports several hypervisor platforms, such as VMware ESXi, KVM, and Hyper-V, and provides storage solutions that integrate with them.Reference=Storage virtualization overview,VMware hypervisor and hardware considerations,NetApp HCI Resources
