To test the persistent ports feature in a NetApp AFF All SAN Array cluster, performing a takeover of a node is the appropriate method. Takeover operations verify failover capabilities and ensure that the ports can handle switching over as intended. Disconnecting an FCP target port or initiator port or disabling a SAN LIF does not comprehensively test the persistent ports feature, as it primarily involves automated port takeover and failover mechanisms within the cluster.
Answer is D. If we don't have OnCommand Insight, then we should not pull out a cable as test because it won't be detected properly. Doing a planned takeover will meet the requirements asked.
