Explanation
In Data ONTAP Cluster-Mode, NFS export policies and rules are stored in the Replicated Database (RDB), replacing the flat-file /etc/exports model used in 7-Mode.
Common mistakes.
- A. Editing /etc/exports is specific to 7-Mode; Cluster-Mode does not use this file and export policies must be created and modified through the ONTAP CLI or System Manager instead.
- B. Cluster-Mode does not support temporary exports - all export policies are persistent objects stored in the RDB, unlike 7-Mode which allowed temporary export entries.
- D. Both A and B are individually incorrect, so their combination is also incorrect.
- E. Although C is correct, B is false because temporary exports are not supported in Cluster-Mode, making this combined choice incorrect.
