The correct answer is D: Junction path for the volume. In clustered Data ONTAP, client access to volumes via NFS or CIFS requires the junction path, which is the logical mount point of the volume within the SVM namespace.

Question

In clustered Data ONTAP, the NFS mount or the CIFS share path need to contain the following:

Options

AVserver root volume
BAbsolute path of the volume
CAggregate name for the volume
DJunction path for the volume

Explanation

In clustered Data ONTAP, client access to volumes via NFS or CIFS requires the junction path, which is the logical mount point of the volume within the SVM namespace.

Common mistakes.

A. The Vserver root volume is the starting point of the namespace but is not itself specified in a client mount or share path.
B. The absolute internal path of a volume is a storage-layer concept and is not exposed to or usable by NFS or CIFS clients.
C. The aggregate name identifies where volume data is physically stored on disk and plays no role in client-facing NFS mount or CIFS share paths.

Concept tested. Junction path for NAS client volume access
