NEW QUESTION # 33
A customer fails to see any disks in SnapDrive for Windows but they do see them in File Explorer.
Which two statements describe what you should do to solve this problem? (Choose two.)

  • A. Verify that the transport protocol is set to HTTPS.
  • B. Restart the SnapDrive for Windows service.
  • C. Perform a rescan from the Disk Management MMC.

Answer: B,C


NEW QUESTION # 34
A volume was accidentally deleted two hours ago by another administrator. No backups exist.
In this scenario, what do you do to restore the data?

  • A. Use a volume snapshot to return the data to the active file system.
  • B. Use the volume recovery queue to restore the volume.
  • C. Use an aggregate snapshot to revert the aggregate to an earlier state.
  • D. Use the ONTAP System Manager to recover the volume.

Answer: B

Explanation:
The volume recovery queue is the correct recovery mechanism when a volume was accidentally deleted recently and no backups exist. ONTAP protects against accidental deletion by retaining deleted volumes in a recovery queue for a configured retention period, allowing administrators to recover them before they are permanently purged. A volume Snapshot cannot be used if the volume itself has been deleted and no accessible backup copy exists. An aggregate Snapshot revert is not a valid or normal ONTAP recovery method for restoring an individual deleted volume and would be far too disruptive. ONTAP System Manager may provide a graphical way to recover deleted volumes in later versions, but the feature being tested is the volume recovery queue itself. The support engineer should immediately check retention time, locate the deleted volume in the recovery queue, recover it, and then restore required junction or mapping details.
References/topics: ONTAP volume recovery queue, accidental volume deletion protection, FlexVol recovery, retention period, and data recovery workflow.

NEW QUESTION # 35
For testing purposes, your customer decides to use FC on a single-node ONTAP cluster. There is only one host that the customer expects to use. High availability is not a concern for this test. The customer connects the host directly to the ONTAP node. The LUN is set up, and the igroup is configured. When the customer tries to attach to the LUN from the host, the LUN is not seen by the host.
Which statement is correct in this scenario?

  • A. Multipathing must be used and connected to another FC path.
  • B. An FC switch must be used with ONTAP.
  • C. NPIV must be enabled on the host before trying to attach to the LUN.
  • D. NPV must be enabled on the host before trying to attach to the LUN.

Answer: D


NEW QUESTION # 36
You provision a new ONTAP volume to use as a VMware vSphere NFS datastore. You successfully mount the volume to the vSphere (ESXi) hosts, and you can read, write, and delete small (less than 1 KB) test files.
However, you cannot upload large files or Storage vMotion VMs to the new datastore. You verify that the volume is reporting adequate free space.
Which action should you perform to troubleshoot this problem?

  • A. Verify that the export policy is correct for the volume.
  • B. Verifythat the NFS LIF is on its home port.
  • C. Verify the MTU configuration along the network path.
  • D. Verify that the security style is set correctly on the volume.

  • D. Review the ONTAP 9 product page.

Answer: A


NEW QUESTION # 38
You want to use the supported method to upgrade the ONTAP version of a Cloud Volumes ONTAP instance from ONTAP 9.5 to ONTAP 9.6.
In this scenario, which NetApp tool accomplishes this task?

  • A. ONTAP System Manager
  • B. Cloud Insights
  • C. Active IQ Unified Manager
  • D. Cloud Manager

Answer: D

Explanation:
Cloud Manager is the supported tool for upgrading the ONTAP version of a Cloud Volumes ONTAP instance. Cloud Volumes ONTAP is managed through the NetApp cloud management plane, so lifecycle operations such as software upgrades are performed from Cloud Manager/BlueXP rather than directly through traditional on-premises tools. Cloud Insights is an observability and monitoring service, not the upgrade mechanism. Active IQ Unified Manager manages and monitors ONTAP environments but is not the supported CVO upgrade tool in this scenario. ONTAP System Manager is used for ONTAP cluster administration, but Cloud Volumes ONTAP version upgrades are controlled through the cloud working environment in Cloud Manager. The support engineer must distinguish on-premises ONTAP administration from CVO lifecycle management. When the question says supported method for upgrading a CVO instance, the answer is Cloud Manager. References/topics: Cloud Volumes ONTAP lifecycle management, Cloud Manager/BlueXP, CVO software upgrade workflow, and NetApp cloud data services.


NEW QUESTION # 39
A hosting company is about to deploy a Microsoft Hyper-V environment connected to NetApp storage. They want to know which version of SMB and Data ONTAP should be deployed in this environment that supports continuously available shares.

  • A. clustered Data ONTAP and SMB 2.1
  • B. Data ONTAP /Mode and SMB3
  • C. Data ONTAP 7 Mode and SMB 2.1
  • D. clustered Data ONTAP and SMB 3

Answer: D


NEW QUESTION # 40
Which NetApp technology enables a volume to span across one or more aggregates and one or more NetApp nodes?

  • A. FlexVol
  • B. FlexGroup
  • C. Flash Cache
  • D. Flash Pool

Answer: B

Explanation:
FlexGroup is the ONTAP technology that enables a single volume namespace to span one or more aggregates and one or more nodes. A FlexVol is hosted within a single aggregate and does not distribute constituents across multiple nodes. Flash Pool and Flash Cache are performance or caching technologies, not multi-node volume namespace technologies. FlexGroup uses multiple member constituents distributed across the cluster to provide scalable NAS capacity and performance while presenting a single namespace to clients. This matters in support cases because FlexGroup troubleshooting involves constituent placement, aggregate distribution, and workload balance across nodes. The wording 'span across one or more aggregates and one or more NetApp nodes' is the exam signature for FlexGroup. It is used when a workload requires a large namespace or high parallelism beyond what a single FlexVol can provide. References/topics: ONTAP FlexGroup volumes, distributed constituents, NAS scalability, aggregate/node distribution, and large namespace design.

NEW QUESTION # 42
A customer receives the message shown below in their EMS logs.
Tue Jun 27 18:34:18 CEST
[netapp-ct1: cp_worker: wafl.cp.toolong:error]: Aggregate AG1_NTAP_PROD experienced a long CP.
Tue Jun 27 18:37:10 CEST
Which two data sources do you use to explain this message? (Choose two.)

  • A. Performance Archive
  • B. ONTAP System Manager
  • C. Active IQ Unified Manager
  • D. mgwd.log

Answer: A,B

Explanation:
ONTAP System Manager and Performance Archive are the appropriate data sources for explaining a wafl.cp.
toolong event. A long consistency point indicates that WAFL took longer than expected to complete a CP, so the engineer needs both system event context and historical performance evidence. System Manager provides an operational view of cluster health, aggregate state, and performance indicators. Performance Archive provides the deeper time-series performance data needed to correlate the event with workload, disk, CPU, NVRAM, or aggregate behavior around the timestamp. Active IQ Unified Manager may be useful in broader monitoring, but the question asks for the data sources used to explain this specific EMS message. mgwd.log is a management daemon log and is not the primary source for WAFL CP performance analysis. The support approach is to correlate the EMS event with performance archive counters and visible system health.
References/topics: wafl.cp.toolong EMS events, WAFL consistency points, Performance Archive, System Manager performance review, and ONTAP CP troubleshooting.

NEW QUESTION # 43
A user can read and write some files on an NFS volume, but the user is unable to read all of the files in the volume.
In this scenario, which command will help you troubleshoot this problem?

  • A. vserver security trace filter create
  • B. security audit show
  • C. vserver export-policy check-access
  • D. security login create

Answer: A

Explanation:
vserver security trace filter create is the appropriate command to troubleshoot why a user can read and write some files on an NFS volume but cannot read all files. The symptom points to file-level access evaluation rather than a simple export-policy failure. Export-policy check-access is useful to test whether a client can access an export path based on export rules, but it does not fully explain per-file permission differences inside the volume. security login create is for administrator login configuration and is unrelated to client file access.
security audit show does not perform targeted access-decision tracing. ONTAP security trace can be used to trace NAS access decisions and identify whether permissions, user mapping, security style, ACLs, or UNIX mode bits are causing the denial. A support engineer should use it when access is inconsistent across files in the same volume. References/topics: ONTAP security trace, NFS file access troubleshooting, UNIX permissions, mixed security styles, and NAS authorization diagnostics.


NEW QUESTION # 44
What is the consequence of a loss of connectivity between a Cloud Volumes ONTAP (CVO) instance and Cloud Manager for four or more days?

  • A. Cloud Manager removes the CVO instance from its inventory.
  • B. The CVO instance sends an AutoSupport message.
  • C. The CVO instance is stopped.
  • D. The CVO instance must be added back manually to Cloud Manager.

Answer: A


NEW QUESTION # 45
What are two reasons to use VLANs in a NetApp storage solution? (Choose two.)

  • A. to isolate UDP traffic from TCP traffic
  • B. to isolate FC traffic from other IP traffic
  • C. to isolate iSCSI traffic from NAS traffic
  • D. to isolate management traffic from other IP traffic

Answer: C,D

Explanation:
VLANs are commonly used to segregate cluster/node management traffic from data traffic. This improves security (management interfaces aren't exposed on the same broadcast domain as client data traffic) and helps ensure management access remains available even if data network traffic is heavy or problematic.
Best practice in NetApp storage networking is to separate block-based iSCSI traffic from file- based NAS traffic (CIFS/NFS) using VLANs. This reduces broadcast domain congestion, improves performance predictability, and follows recommended network segmentation design for SAN vs. NAS workloads sharing the same physical Ethernet infrastructure.
