Clustered Data ONTAP Administration

Code: DCADM
Overview
 
Data ONTAP® 8 is the next generation data storage operating system from NetApp. In this course, you will learn the evolution of clustered Data ONTAP, utilize new features such as flash pool and infinite volumes, understand the benefits of scalability, be able to explain the architecture and functionality of a Data ONTAP, and be able to configure and manage, a Data ONTAP cluster.

The Fast Lane Cluster-Mode enhanced labs add value to the student lab experience by providing additional exercises on the following topics:
 
  • Delegation of VServers and creation of VServer management LIFS
  • Using the command line to configure iSCSI SAN
  • Backup and Restore of the Cluster Configuration
  • Creating  Intercluster SnapMirror Relationships from the command line
