  • Discuss backup guarantees through NetApp Snapshot reserve
  • Discuss the overwrite guarantee for space-?reserved LUNs
  • Analyze the default LUN configuration and two thin-?provisioning configurations
  • Discuss Flash Pool Design and Implementation
  • Easily implement SnapVault
  • Utilize Provisioning and Protection manager workflows with OnCommand Unified Manager

  • Three years of experience in a storage related function, such as storage administrator or field engineer
  • Six months experience with NetApp storage solutions
  • Attend a training on Data ONTAP 7-Mode Administration or equivalent practical experience

The Data ONTAP 7-Mode (NCDA Boot Camp) class is ideal for:
