NS0-157 Question #343: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

The correct answer is D: 64 bit, RAID DP, Snapshot reserve 0. Clustered Data ONTAP 8.2 introduced 64-bit aggregates as the default format, paired with RAID-DP for dual-parity protection and a 0% snapshot reserve at the aggregate level.

Question

In clustered Data ONTAP 8.2, an aggregate by default is _________.

Options

  • A32 bit, RAID DP, Snapshot reserve 0
  • B32 bit, RAID 4, Snapshot reserve 0
  • C64 bit, RAID 4, Snapshot reserve 0
  • D64 bit, RAID DP, Snapshot reserve 0

Explanation

Clustered Data ONTAP 8.2 introduced 64-bit aggregates as the default format, paired with RAID-DP for dual-parity protection and a 0% snapshot reserve at the aggregate level.

Common mistakes.

  • A. 32-bit is the legacy format from older ONTAP releases; clustered ONTAP 8.2 defaults to 64-bit, making this combination incorrect.
  • B. RAID-4 provides only single-parity protection and has not been the default RAID policy since RAID-DP became standard, so this combination is incorrect.
  • C. RAID-4 is not the default RAID policy; ONTAP defaults to RAID-DP because dual parity protects against two concurrent disk failures, a critical requirement for large modern aggregates.
