Question 6

Which two SVM types can host intercluster LIFs? (Choose two.)

    Correct Answer: C, D

    Intercluster LIFs (Logical Interfaces) are associated with endpoints that facilitate communication between different clusters. These interfaces can be hosted on specific types of Storage Virtual Machines (SVMs). The SVM types that can host intercluster LIFs are Admin and System. Admin SVM is responsible for managing the cluster and its resources, while System SVM operates at the cluster level, facilitating necessary administrative tasks. Data SVMs are more focused on serving data to clients, and Node SVMs pertain to individual nodes within the cluster. Therefore, the correct SVM types for hosting intercluster LIFs are Admin and System.

wm_ivOptions: CD

Create intercluster LIFs on either an admin SVM (Default IPspace) or a system SVM (custom IPspace): https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap/peering/configure-intercluster-lifs-share-data-ports-task.html

pretty sure this is Admin and Node https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap/system-admin/types-svms-concept.html

Answers are A & D https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap/peering/configure-intercluster-lifs-share-data-ports-task.html

kombaynOptions: AC

Data and admin SVMs handles intercluster communication. System SVM operates on cluster level

Eiri_FOptions: AD

a) Create intercluster LIFs on the system SVM (Configure intercluster LIFs on shared data ports); d) Data SVMs are commonly used for hosting intercluster LIFs. These LIFs allow communication between clusters for various purposes, such as replication and data mobility. The IP addresses assigned to intercluster LIFs can reside in the same subnet as data LIFs or in a different subnet. https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap/peering/configure-intercluster-lifs-share-data-ports-task.html
