NetApp Exam NS0-527 Topic 7 Question 50 Discussion

Actual exam question for NetApp's NS0-527 exam

Question #: 50
Topic #: 7

You decide to enable SnapMirror network compression on your NetApp clustered Data ONTAP environment. Which two statements are correct about enabling this feature?

(Choose two.)

AThe data is compressed only while it traverses the network.

BThe data transfer between the clusters must use the NDMP protocol.

CYou may only enable SnapMirror network compression on one HA pair in a cluster, and traffic 1-1 is limited to routing through those nodes.

DThe compression engine creates multiple transfer threads corresponding to the number of CPUs on the source storage system.

I'll have to agree with the others on A and D. The compression happening only during network transfer makes sense, and the multi-threaded approach to leverage the source system's resources is a classic NetApp optimization trick. B and C feel a bit too restrictive to be true.

I agree, A and D make the most sense. B and C seem too limiting.

Haha, I love how they throw in these tricky options to really test our understanding. It's like NetApp is playing a game of 'Spot the Odd One Out' with us. I'm going with A and D, seems like the most straightforward answers here.

I agree with you, Hannah. Option D also makes sense because the compression engine creates multiple transfer threads based on the number of CPUs.

I'm not sure about B, the NDMP protocol requirement. I thought SnapMirror could work with other network protocols as well. And C also doesn't sound right, as I would expect the compression to be available cluster-wide, not limited to a single HA pair.

I agree, B and C don't seem accurate. SnapMirror should work with other protocols and compression should be cluster-wide.

A and D seem correct. SnapMirror network compression is all about reducing the data transfer over the network, not about permanent storage compression. And the compression engine should be leveraging the available CPU resources on the source system.

That makes sense. It's important to optimize network performance while transferring data between clusters. Enabling compression can definitely help with that.

A and D are correct. SnapMirror network compression is focused on reducing network data transfer, not storage compression. The compression engine should utilize the CPU resources on the source system.
