QuestionQ14

ONTAP SAN implementation and configuration

You are provisioning storage for an ESX host that uses iSCSI.

According to NetApp best practice, which three actions accomplish this task?

Choose three
  • A Enable the iSCSI service.
  • B Bind the iSCSI ports to the software iSCSI adapter.
  • C Install Virtual Storage Console (VSC) for VMware.
  • D Enable BGP on the switch.
  • E Configure MTU 1500 on the switch.
Explanation

NetApp’s ESXi iSCSI configuration guidance requires the iSCSI software adapter to be enabled and iSCSI VMkernel ports to be bound to it to support multipathing. Virtual Storage Console (VSC) automates many required NetApp iSCSI configuration and provisioning tasks for ESXi. BGP is not part of this storage configuration, and MTU 1500 is not the indicated best-practice configuration when jumbo frames are used.
