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?
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.
