Course Overview
This two-day course provides a technical overview of the features and benefits of NetApp ONTAP 9 data-management software. The course enables you to explain the architecture and functionality of an ONTAP cluster. You will also be introduced to basic administration, configuration and management of an ONTAP cluster. Through hands-on exercises, you will learn how to create a cluster, aggregates, storage virtual machines (SVMs), LIFs, FlexVol volumes and Snapshot copies.
Course Objectives
List the steps to create and configure a cluster
Identify the methods to manage a cluster
Describe IPspaces, broadcast domains, and subnets
Describe SVM benefits, components, and features
Describe FlexVol volumes and efficiency features
Describe methods to access files in a cluster
