Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

The recommended setting for using the NetApp ONTAP LUN fractional reserve is to set the space guarantee to 'volume'. This setting ensures that the required space for overwrites in the volume is reserved, preventing potential write failures when snapshot copies are created. This setup helps in maintaining the performance and reliability of the storage system by ensuring there is always enough space allocated for the LUN.

I'm feeling lucky today, so I'm going with D. Disabled Snapshot copy deletion sounds like a recipe for a storage nightmare, but hey, what do I know? Maybe it's a secret NetApp trick to save space.

Disabling automatic Snapshot copy deletion? That's like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. What were they thinking? The correct answer is clearly A, because who needs space when you can just delete all those pesky Snapshots?

I'm going with B. Enabling space allocation sounds like the way to go. Who needs fractional reserve when you can just allocate all the space upfront? That's the NetApp way, right?

The correct answer is definitely C. Setting the space guarantee to volume ensures that the LUN has the necessary space allocated, even if it's not fully utilized. It's like reserving a seat on a plane, just in case you need it.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. But I heard that if you set the space guarantee to volume, you can reserve space for your LUNs. Might be worth a try!
