Correct Answer: BC
Cloud Volumes ONTAP supports the use of FlexCache volumes for caching on-premises ONTAP volumes into the cloud. FlexCache is designed for NAS (Network Attached Storage) protocols, which specifically includes NFS (Network File System) and SMB (Server Message Block). Therefore, the supported protocols in this scenario are NFS and SMB. NVMe and iSCSI are not supported with FlexCache volumes in this context.

May 17, 2023Agreed, if you focus on caching then only NAS (SMB/NFS) is supported. iSCSI is supported in CVO but not with caching.
