NetApp Exam NS0-593 Topic 4 Question 41 Discussion

Actual exam question for NetApp's NS0-593 exam

Question #: 41
Topic #: 4

A customer wants to connect a NetApp AFF A700 system to a 40GbE switch. The controllers have a 10/40G Ethernet card in slot 4 for this purpose. The link comes up fine on node 2, but it will not come up on node 1. You look at the AutoSupport data for the nodes in question and see the output shown in the exhibit.

What is the cause of the customer's problem?

AThe cable is plugged in upside down.

BThe incorrect cable is used.

CThe ports are configured for 4x10Gbit instead of 40Gbit.

DThe port has an incorrect SFP inserted.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

= The cause of the customer's problem is that the port has an incorrect SFP inserted.According to the AutoSupport data, the node 1 has a device type of XL710 BQ, which is a 40GbE adapter that requires a QSFP+ transceiver1.However, the part number of the adapter is 111-02590, which is a 10GbE adapter that requires a SFP+ transceiver2. This mismatch prevents the link from coming up on node 1.The customer should replace the adapter with the correct one or use a compatible transceiver for the existing adapter.Reference=1:NetApp Hardware Universe - X1144A2:NetApp Hardware Universe - X1147A
