QuestionQ7

Replication

An administrator must retain 10 snapshots per volume on a NetApp AFF system and replicate them to a destination with a snapshot retention of 120.

Which NetApp feature should the administrator use?

  • A SnapMirror active sync
  • B XCP
  • C MetroCluster
  • D SnapMirror
Explanation

SnapMirror replicates ONTAP Snapshot copies between volumes. A SnapMirror vault or mirror-vault policy can define retention rules for copies at the destination, allowing longer destination retention—such as 120 snapshots—while the source volume maintains its own 10-copy snapshot policy.
