Question 1 of 60

A customer wants to deploy NVMe/FC along with an existing FC SAN fabric using ONTAP 9.8.
In this scenario, which two actions are correct? (Choose two.)
Answer choices
Show answer

Correct answers: A, B

To deploy NVMe/FC along with an existing FC SAN fabric using ONTAP 9.8, two actions are required. First, you must enable NVMe/FC on the existing FC SVM. This is necessary because ONTAP 9.8 allows you to configure multiple storage protocols, including NVMe/FC, on the same SVM. Second, you need to create new zoning on fabric switches. This is required to properly manage the communication paths for the new NVMe/FC devices, ensuring that they have isolated zones and appropriate paths configured.

Exam NS0-520: Question 2 - Image 1

You are configuring a new NetApp ONTAP cluster and are connecting the nodes to Cisco MDS SAN switches. You connect one of the nodes to switch port fc1/11 and run the commands that are shown in the exhibit. The SAN LIFs are enabled but are not operationally online, and none of the SAN hosts can access their LUNs on the ONTAP cluster.

In this scenario, which configuration would cause this problem?

Answer choices
Show answer

Correct answer: A

The problem described in the scenario where SAN LIFs are enabled but not operationally online and SAN hosts cannot access their LUNs is likely due to NPIV not being enabled on the switches. NPIV (N_Port ID Virtualization) allows multiple virtual N_Ports to share a single physical N_Port, which is essential for the proper functioning of LIFs in a multi-tenant environment like NetApp ONTAP clusters. While the exhibit shows the interface and node details, it does not indicate whether NPIV is enabled. Ensuring that NPIV is configured correctly on the switches would likely resolve the issue.

Question 3 of 60

You are installing an AFF A250 system with ONTAP 9.8 software. Your customer asks you about the recommended LIF configuration for the iSCSI protocol.

In this scenario, which two statements are correct? (Choose two.)

Answer choices
Show answer

Correct answers: A, B

Each node in an iSCSI configuration must be connected to a minimum of two Ethernet switches to ensure redundancy and high availability. Additionally, each Storage Virtual Machine (SVM) in an iSCSI configuration must have a minimum of two Logical Interface (LIF) per node for redundancy and load balancing purposes.

Question 4 of 60

A customer has a 4-node cluster consisting of a FAS8020 system and an AFF A220 system that is running iSCSI workloads across two separate SVMs. The FAS8020 system is reaching end of support, so they add a new AFF A400 system to migrate workloads off the FAS8020 system. The customer wants to migrate data off the FAS8020 aggregate n1_aggr1 on SVM2 to the AFF A400 aggregate n5_aggr1 on SVM1.

In this scenario, which NetApp command would accomplish this task?

Answer choices
Show answer

Correct answer: D

To migrate volume data between different storage virtual machines (SVMs), the appropriate command is 'volume rehost'. This command allows for the reassignment of volumes from one SVM to another, facilitating the movement of workloads without the need for a SnapMirror copy. Despite being a disruptive operation for data access and volume management, 'volume rehost' directly addresses the requirement of migrating data from the FAS8020 aggregate on one SVM to the AFF A400 aggregate on another SVM.

Stories from the certified

Charles Sirois
Canada
As this was my first certification exam, I was understandably nervous about what to expect. These study materials made the preparation process much easier, and many of the questions closely reflected those on the actual exam.
Lance Chambers
United States
Wasted about a month going through the free dump sites scattered all over reddit, half the answers were wrong and the other half were for a version of the exam that doesn't even exist anymore. Eventually gave in and paid the small fee here, and the difference was night and day.
Alisha Kelly
Italy
Honestly, I had already gone through the official documentation quite thoroughly, but still didn't feel fully confident going in. This helped things finally click for me. I realized I knew the material, but just hadn't connected all the pieces yet.
Casper Claassen
Netherlands
Used this along with Microsoft Learn and the combo worked really well. The practice questions made the stuff I'd read actually stick. Passed first attempt, no complaints from me.
Gabriele Ghesla
Italy
The content is accurate and clearly presented, and it's more affordable than competitors. The team has been incredibly responsive whenever I've had an issue, and they've been open to small changes that improve the platform.
