NetApp Exam NS0-521 Topic 2 Question 15 Discussion

Actual exam question for NetApp's NS0-521 exam

Question #: 15
Topic #: 2

A customer requires multiple SAN and NAS protocols on a NetApp AFF cluster. The cluster must concurrently serve a namespace over NVMe/FC, a LUN over FCP, a LUN over iSCSI, and an NFS export.

Based on these requirements, what is the minimum data SVM count that is required?

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

To concurrently serve a namespace over NVMe/FC, a LUN over FCP, a LUN over iSCSI, and an NFS export, only one data SVM (Storage Virtual Machine) is required. NetApp ONTAP allows a single SVM to support multiple SAN and NAS protocols simultaneously, enabling efficient and consolidated management of storage resources.

I think the answer is D. 2 data SVMs should be able to handle all those protocols concurrently. One for the NAS protocols and one for the SAN protocols.
