CODE: NEP_OT-CLU-DPA

LENGTH: 40 Hours (5 days)

PRICE: £4,330.00

Description

This 5 day class is a combination of the 3 day Cluster Administration Class and the 2 day Data Protection Class.

 

Cluster Administration

Learn the basic administration tasks of a NetApp® ONTAP® 9.14 cluster. Use the clustershell and NetApp ONTAP System Manager to manage cluster storage and network resources. Discover how to configure basic data protection and data efficiency functions and common cluster maintenance tasks.

 

Data Protection

Explore key concepts and techniques for protecting data on NetApp® ONTAP® based storage systems. Learn about the data protection solutions that are integrated in ONTAP software and examine the tools to manage ONTAP data protection features. In the hands-on exercises, use NetApp ONTAP System Manager and the ONTAP CLI to perform key data protection tasks.

 

This course is updated for ONTAP 9.14.1 software.

Objectives

• Define ONTAP cluster components
• Describe the role of a storage VM (storage virtual machine, also known as SVM) in the NetApp storage architecture
• Configure an ONTAP cluster
• Configure and manage both networking and storage resources
• Create and configure a storage VM
• Create, manage, and protect NetApp FlexVol® volumes
• Implement storage efficiency features
• Manage ONTAP administrator access and user accounts
• Manage NetApp storage systems

 

• Describe and distinguish the data protection features in ONTAP software
• Administer the appropriate ONTAP data protection feature to address your data protection concern
• Configure NetApp SnapMirror® relationships for disaster recovery and data backup
• Demonstrate storage VM disaster recovery (SVM DR)
• Illustrate NDMP-enabled operations to back up NAS data to tape
• Integrate the cloud-based data protection solutions that complement your ONTAP based storage systems
• Structure NetApp MetroCluster components and functionality
• Illustrate SnapMirror active sync components and functionality
