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

Which NetApp web-based data management tool enables a customer to provision storage systems and perform common management tasks?



Answer : A

ONTAP System Manager is a web-based data management tool that enables customers to provision storage systems and perform common management tasks. ONTAP System Manager provides a simple, intuitive, and centralized interface for managing ONTAP clusters, volumes, LUNs, SVMs, and more. ONTAP System Manager simplifies storage management by automating complex workflows, providing best practices, and offering guided setup and configuration wizards.Reference=ONTAP System Manager overview,ONTAP Data Management Software


Question 3

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 4

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


Question 5

A customer wants to move file storage to a public cloud and manage their own storage solution. Which offering should be recommended to this customer?



Answer : B

NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP is a cloud-native storage solution that allows customers to deploy and manage NetApp hybrid, multi-cloud storage and data services from on-premises sources and cloud service providers. It provides enterprise-grade data and file services, such as NFS, SMB/CIFS, iSCSI and S3, on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. It also offers high availability, data protection, storage efficiency, and cost-performance optimization features. It is suitable for customers who want to have more control and flexibility over their cloud storage solution, while leveraging NetApp's technology and expertise.Reference=Cloud Volumes ONTAP: Deploy Storage in the Public Cloud - NetApp,NetApp Customer Experience | NetApp,NetApp storage systems overview.


Question 6

A customer has a NetApp AFF system with a large portion of space that is used by inactive dat

a. The customer wants to free up space for more active data on the system and still be able to access inactive data.

Which NetApp product should this customer use to free up space in a cost-effective way?



Answer : A

= 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 efficiencies.Reference=Learn about BlueXP tiering,Cloud Tiering: Free up Space on On-Premises Storage Systems


Question 7

A database administrator needs 30 writeable copies of a database that will not take additional space when created.

Which NetApp ONTAP feature meets this requirement?



Answer : B

FlexClone is an ONTAP feature that allows you to instantly create writable virtual copies of data volumes, files, and LUNs, which do not consume storage space. A FlexClone volume, file, or LUN is a writable point-in-time image of the FlexVol volume or another FlexClone volume, file, or LUN. FlexClone is based on Snapshot technology, which captures a read-only image of a volume at a given point in time. FlexClone is perfect for DevOps and test environments, where multiple copies of a database are needed for testing or development purposes.Reference=NetApp ONTAP,Storage efficiency features,Storage Snapshots Deep Dive: Cloud Volumes ONTAP Snapshots
