Question

Accepted Answer

Interview questions for Netapp Storage Administrator

Zoning is a process of creating logical groups of devices in a SAN
Types of zoning include WWN zoning, Port zoning, and Mixed zoning
Different types of HDD used in SAN include SAS, SATA, and SSD
De-duplication is a process of eliminating duplicate data to save storage space
Degraded mode is a state in which a storage system operates with reduced functionality due to a failed component
LUN can be created for NFS/CIFS client in Netapp using the OnCommand System Manager
ONTAP is the storage operating system used in Netapp
Dynamic Provisioning is a feature in Hitachi that allows for the automatic allocation of storage resources
Tiering is a process of categorizing data based on its importance and storing it on different types of storage media
Cache controller is a hardware component that stores frequently accessed data to improve system performance
IOPS/Latency for LUN can be measured using tools like Netapp Performance Manager
SSD disks are faster than traditional HDDs due to their lack of moving parts
Netapp GUI is a web-based interface used to manage Netapp storage systems
RAID is a data protection technology that uses multiple disks to store data and provide redundancy
Aggregate is a logical container that consists of one or more RAID groups
