What is the minimal interface requirement for a SnapMirror relationship between clusters?

  1. one data LIF per SVM
  2. one cable directly connected to both clusters
  3. one intercluster LIF per node
  4. one intercluster LIF per SVM

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

For a SnapMirror relationship to function properly, each node in a cluster must have at least one intercluster LIF. These LIFs are used exclusively for replication traffic and ensure that all nodes can participate in SnapMirror operations.



You have a large 2PiB flexgroup that will need to be failed over to a DR site for a weekend due to maintenance work at the original site. To speed up time to return to normal operations the Storage Administrator will use the -quick-resync true option when reversing the SnapMirror relationship.

What needs to be taken into consideration when it comes to using quick resync?

  1. All storage efficiencies will be preserved
  2. All storage efficiencies are done in line with the SnapMirror
  3. All storage efficiencies will be ignored
  4. All storage efficiencies will be lost on the source

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

When using the -quick-resync true option in SnapMirror, storage efficiencies such as deduplication and compression are not preserved on the original source during resync. This means that efficiencies will be lost on the source volume, and data will be rehydrated to its full form during transfer.



An administrator is setting up SnapMirror SVM replication. One of the source data volumes uses cloud tiering with the snapshot-only tiering policy.
Which cloud tiering policy is supported on the destination volume?

  1. none
  2. auto
  3. all
  4. snapshot-only

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

When using SnapMirror SVM replication, the cloud tiering policy on the destination volume must match the source if tiering is to be preserved. The only supported tiering policy in this context is snapshot-only, which moves cold Snapshot blocks to cloud tier. This ensures compatibility during replication.



What are the two modes for Autonomous Ransomware Protection (ARP)? (Choose two.)

  1. active
  2. listening
  3. passive
  4. learning

Answer(s): A,D

Explanation:

Autonomous Ransomware Protection (ARP) operates in two modes:

Learning mode: ARP observes and learns baseline workload behaviors to distinguish between normal and abnormal activity.

Active mode: ARP actively monitors and can automatically respond to ransomware-like behavior by alerting or taking protective actions.



You have created a SnapMirror relationship from your production volume serving SMB/CIFS data to your DR cluster. After two days of updates, you do not see any of the expected snapshots on the secondary volume.

Why is SnapMirror failing to replicate snapshots?

  1. The SnapMirror label is missing from the SnapMirror policy on the secondary volume.
  2. SnapMirror is not properly licensed.
  3. SVM peering is not properly configured.
  4. The SnapMirror label is missing from the snapshot policy on the secondary volume.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

SnapMirror replication is driven by labels that match between the snapshot policy on the source volume and the SnapMirror policy. If the snapshot policy on the source does not include the correct SnapMirror label, SnapMirror will not recognize which snapshots to replicate, resulting in no transfers.



A customer is running NetApp ONTAP 9.14.1 software and asks you to protect some data in a way that even disk zeroing cannot delete.

Which command enforces the requirement?

  1. volume create -snaplock-type compliance
  2. volume create -snaplock-type enterprise
  3. aggregate create -snaplock-type compliance
  4. aggregate create -snaplock-type enterprise

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The SnapLock Compliance mode provides WORM (Write Once, Read Many) protection that is irrevocable, even by administrators, and not removable by disk zeroing or reinitialization. This satisfies stringent regulatory and tamper-proof data protection requirements.



You need to upgrade to NetApp ONTAP 9.12.1 software on your source cluster in a SnapMirror relationship. The source cluster differs from the destination cluster and you want to take advantage of version-flexible SnapMirror replication.

Which option should you choose?

  1. SnapMirror automatically converts existing DP-type relationships to XDP-type relationships.
  2. Run the command snapmirror resync and set the type to XDP.
  3. Delete the XDP-type relationship and create a new DP-type relationship.
  4. Delete the DP-type relationship and create a new XDP-type relationship.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

To take advantage of version-flexible SnapMirror (introduced with XDP-type relationships), you must delete the existing DP-type relationship and create a new one using type XDP. DP-type relationships do not support version flexibility, which allows the source and destination clusters to run different ONTAP versions.



After setting up a new cluster peering relationship between a production site and a new DR site, the customer mentions that the communication for this peer needs to be secured to help deter "man in the middle" attacks.

What can you do on the NetApp end to secure the existing cluster peering?

  1. Modify the firewall policy settings on the Intercluster LIFs.
  2. Enable aggregate level encryption.
  3. Modify the relationship using -encryption-protocol-proposed.
  4. Enable IPsec between the sites.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

To secure an existing cluster peering relationship, you can modify it to enable encryption by using the -encryption-protocol-proposed option. This ensures that intercluster SnapMirror traffic is encrypted, helping protect against man-in-the-middle attacks.

i have a lot of experience but what comes in the exam is totally different from the practical day to day tasks. so i thought i would rather rely on these brain dumps rather failing the exam.
