QuestionQ95

ONTAP SAN implementation testing and troubleshooting

An administrator manages a 2-node NetApp ONTAP cluster hosting FC LUNs for 90 SAN hosts. The hosts intermittently experience performance issues and receive QFULL responses from the cluster nodes.

Which action would resolve this issue?

  • A Increase the queue depth on the target ports.
  • B Increase the queue depth on the initiator ports.
  • C Configure additional FC ports on the hosts.
  • D Configure additional FC target ports.
Explanation

A QFULL response indicates that the storage controller has reached the maximum queue depth on an FC target port. Additional FC target ports allow the host initiators to be redistributed, reducing queue-depth consumption per target port and preventing the controller-side queue from being exhausted.
