ONTAP® SAN solution assessment

A customer plans to use NVMe/FC to connect three Linux hosts to their NetApp ONTAP cluster.

What is the minimum HBA speed required in an ONTAP controller for this scenario?

  • A 32Gbps
  • B 8Gbps
  • C 4Gbps
  • D 16Gbps
Explanation

For ONTAP NVMe/FC connectivity, the minimum supported FC HBA speed is 16 Gbps. A 32-Gbps HBA is also suitable, but it is not the minimum; 4-Gbps and 8-Gbps HBAs do not meet the NVMe/FC requirement. NetApp specifies that FC target ports can be used for FC-NVMe and that platform and adapter support must be verified in Hardware Universe.
