In transitioning SnapVault relationships from 7-mode to clustered Data ONTAP, which statements are true? (Choose three)

Question

Options

• AYou are required to re-create all Snapvault relationships with new baseline
• BYou can plan on fan-in relationships of many source volume to one destination volume
• CYou can plan on fan-in relationships at the system level, many volumes to one Vserver
• DYou can plan on SnapMirror to SnapVault cascades

• A
  69% (36)
• B
  31% (16)

Explanation

When transitioning SnapVault from 7-mode to clustered Data ONTAP: (A) is TRUE - existing SnapVault relationships cannot be migrated directly; you must re-create all SnapVault relationships with a new baseline transfer because the snapshot naming and relationship metadata differ between 7-mode and cDOT. (C) is TRUE - clustered Data ONTAP supports fan-in at the system level, meaning multiple source volumes from different nodes can replicate to a single destination Vserver (SVM), which is an architectural advantage over 7-mode. (D) is TRUE - SnapMirror-to-SnapVault cascades are supported in cDOT, allowing a SnapMirror destination to also serve as a SnapVault source for long-term retention. (B) is FALSE - traditional fan-in of many source volumes to one destination volume is not a supported or recommended architecture; fan-in in cDOT is at the Vserver/SVM level, not the individual volume level.
