QuestionQ15

ONTAP Networking

An administrator enables the NFS protocol on an SVM and creates a volume for use as a datastore in a VMware environment. Following a rescan, the volume is not visible to the ESXi hosts.

What must the administrator validate to fix this issue?

  • A Access control
  • B Security style
  • C Name service
  • D Export policy
Explanation

ONTAP NFS export policies control which clients can access a volume and with which permissions. For an NFS datastore, the policy must include rules that allow the ESXi hosts' VMkernel IP addresses to mount the volume; VMware clients also require root/superuser access in the export policy.
