Module 0: Welcome

Exercise 1: Checking the Exercise Equipment


In this exercise, you familiarize yourself with your equipment and verify that licenses are installed.

Objectives
This exercise focuses on enabling you to do the following:
• Connect to your NetApp ONTAP cluster
• Configure PuTTY saved sessions
• Verify that required license codes are installed

Case Study
Through the brilliance of management and the dedicated work of the employees, Zarrot Industries was
able to force its rival, the corrupt Dwurgle Enterprises, into bankruptcy. The owner and president, Mr.
Zarrot, was able to acquire Dwurgle at a steep discount. The two companies’ IT infrastructure must now
be merged.

Dwurgle Enterprises owned a NetApp ONTAP system that must now be integrated into the IT
environment here at Zarrot Industries. Your job, along with your colleagues, is to perform that
integration.

The NetApp system, along with the other equipment from Dwurgle, has been installed in the local data
center. The first step is to verify that you can access the equipment and that the NetApp system has the
needed licenses installed.

Lab Equipment
Your exercise environment contains the following virtual machines:
• One Windows Server system
• One CentOS Linux server system
• An ONTAP 9.11 2-node cluster (cluster1)
• A second ONTAP 9.11 2-node cluster (cluster2)

Module 2: Cluster Setup
Exercise 1: Exploring ONTAP Management UIs
In this exercise, you explore the NetApp ONTAP clustershell CLI and NetApp ONTAP System
Manager. You use both interfaces throughout this course.

Objectives
This exercise focuses on enabling you to do the following:
• Explore the clustershell CLI
• Navigate clustershell command directories
• Use the set command to adjust preferences
• Use the Tab key to complete commands
• Review command history
• Explore the ONTAP System Manager UI

Case Study
The NetApp storage system has arrived from Dwurgle Enterprises with the most recent version of
NetApp ONTAP software installed. You need to explore the ONTAP CLI and adjust the settings to your
preferences. Next, you need to explore the new ONTAP System Manager UI.

Exercise Equipment
In this exercise, you use the following systems.
System Host Name IP Addresses User Name Password
Windows Server jumphost 192.168.0.5 DEMO\Administrator Netapp1!
ONTAP cluster-management
cluster1 192.168.0.101 admin (case-sensitive) Netapp1!
LIF (cluster1)
ONTAP cluster-management
cluster2 192.168.0.102 admin (case-sensitive) Netapp1!
LIF (cluster2)

Task 1: Explore the Clustershell CLI


In this task, you log in to and navigate the clustershell CLI, and you view the manual pages.
Step Action

1-1 From your Windows desktop, start the PuTTY application.

Step Action

1-2 In the PuTTY Configuration dialog box, verify that the cluster1 saved session is listed, and then
double-click Cluster1.

1-3 Use the following credentials to log in to cluster1:


• log in as: admin
• Password: Netapp1!

1-4 Remove the timeout threshold for sessions to the cluster:


system timeout modify -timeout 0

1-5 Disabling automatic logout weakens security and should never be done outside of
training environments.

1-6 Review the commands and command directories at the top level of the command hierarchy:
?

1-7 You do not need to press Enter after typing a question mark.
You can resize the PuTTY window to display more than 24 rows.

1-8 An entry that ends with a right-angle bracket (>) symbol is a command directory
rather than a command. The structure resembles a UNIX or DOS shell, in that you
cannot run command directory names as you do commands, but you can navigate to
command directories. Command directories can contain subdirectories, commands,
or both. Command directories are contextual and hierarchical groupings of commands. The
command structure is not flat.

1-9 Review the objects in the storage command directory:


storage ?

1-10 Erase the storage command from the prompt and then open the cluster directory:
cluster

Exploring ONTAP Management UIs M2-E1-P2

NetApp Learning Services - Do Not Distribute


Step Action

1-11 You can use the question mark at any level of the command hierarchy to see which
commands and directories are available within that context. You notice that the
clustershell prompt changes to indicate your context.

1-12 Review the available commands and directories at this level:


?

1-13 Open the statistics directory:


statistics
You are now in the cluster statistics context.

1-14 Review the commands and directories that are available at this level:
?

1-15 Go back one level by typing two periods and then pressing Enter:
..

1-16 Verify that you are back at the cluster directory level.

1-17 From any level, you can type “top” to go directly to the top of the command hierarchy.

1-18 Examine the manual page for the storage command directory:
man storage

1-19 Exit the manual page by entering q.

1-20 Examine the manual page for the storage aggregate directory, and compare the output
with the output of the man storage command:
man storage aggregate

1-21 Exit the manual page by entering q.

1-22 Examine the manual page for the storage aggregate create command:
man storage aggregate create

1-23 Exit the manual page by entering q.

Task 2: Navigate Command Directories


Explore command directories and context, and use positional parameters.
Step Action

2-1 Navigate to the storage aggregate directory level within the clustershell CLI:
storage aggr

Exploring ONTAP Management UIs M2-E1-P3

NetApp Learning Services - Do Not Distribute


Step Action

2-2 From the storage aggregate level, run the following command:
modify ?

2-3 Square brackets ([]) indicate optional command elements. The output of this
command shows the parameter –aggregate with brackets around the parameter
name but not around the parameter value. The format means that the parameter
name is optional, but the value is required. To save keystrokes, you can enter the
aggregate name as a positional parameter rather than a named parameter. All other
parameters and values are optional, except that if you enter a parameter value, you must also
provide a parameter name. (The value cannot be specified based on position.)
In this task, the aggregate name is required to determine which aggregate to modify. Although
the other parameters are technically optional, you should specify at least one parameter for the
command to be meaningful and to modify an attribute of the aggregate.

2-4 Review the possible keyword values for the –state parameter:
modify –state ?

2-5 Type <CNTL> C to clear the command line.

2-6 Review the options for the storage aggregate scrub command:
scrub ?

2-7 As with the modify command, the aggregate name is required, but the parameter
name is optional. Also, the action value is required, but the parameter name
(action) is optional. The command has two possible forms:
• storage aggregate scrub –aggregate aggr0_n1 –action start
• storage aggregate scrub aggr0_n1 start

2-8 Many commands also have additional information fields that are not shown with the
default command syntax. You can see a list of these additional fields by using the
-fields parameter.

2-9 Try this action with the storage aggregate show command:
show -fields ?

2-10 Using the -fields paramater, display the name of node the aggregates are on and whether
or not the aggregates are on their home node:
show -fields node,is-home

2-11 Return to the top of the command hierarchy:


top

Task 3: Use the set Command to Adjust Preferences
Use the set command to change privilege levels, display all available object attributes with a single
command, and set a default storage VM (storage virtual machine, also known as SVM) for a
clustershell session.
Step Action

3-1 Look at the volume directory:


volume ?
The default privilege level is admin.

3-2 Review the commands that are available in this directory context at this privilege level.

3-3 Switch to the advanced privilege level:


set –privilege advanced

3-4 Because –privilege is an optional positional parameter of the set command, you
can also specify the desired privilege level as a positional parameter:
set advanced

3-5 While you are in the advanced privilege level, look again at the volume directory:
volume ?

3-6 Review the other available commands.

3-7 Each command and directory that is available for privilege levels other than admin
has an asterisk (*) in front of the description.

3-8 Switch back to the admin privilege level:


set admin

3-9 Return to the top of the command hierarchy:


top

3-10 Look at the set directory:


set ?

3-11 Display the list of nodes in the cluster:


system node show

3-12 Set the option to show all fields in a query:


set –showallfields true

3-13 Display the list of nodes in the cluster again:


system node show

3-14 Adjust the width of your PuTTY window to correctly show all the fields in the command output,
and then repeat the command that you entered in the previous step.

Step Action

3-15 Turn off the option to show all fields:


set –showallfields false

3-16 Display the list of volumes on the cluster:


vol show

3-17 Set the default storage VM for your clustershell session to c1_svm1:
set –vserver c1_svm1

3-18 View the list of volumes again:


vol show

3-19 You see only volumes that are associated with c1_svm1.

3-20 Turn off the default storage VM:


set –vserver ""

3-21 Verify that the default storage VM is unset.


set

Task 4: Use the Tab Key to Complete Commands


In this task, you enter command shortcuts and use Tab completion to simplify command syntax.
Step Action
4-1 Display the LIFs:
network interface show

4-2 Enter the following command:


net i show

4-3 The command fails because the form that you entered is ambiguous. Multiple options
in the command hierarchy begin with the letter “i.”

4-4 Enter the command again, using in:


net in show

4-5 Type ne (the first two letters of the network command directory), and then press Tab.

4-6 When you enter an unambiguous substring and press Tab, the clustershell completes
the substring.

Step Action
4-7 Continue the command:
 Type in, and then press Tab.
 Type re, and then press Tab.
You notice that re is ambiguous in this context. The clustershell displays the options for re.

4-8 Complete the command:


 Type ne, and then press Tab.
 Type in, and then press Tab.
 Type revert * and then press Enter

Task 5: Review Command History


Use the history command, the redo command, and the up arrow to retrieve previous commands.
Step Action
5-1 Enter the following commands:
net int show
net port show
cluster show

5-2 From the command line, press the up-arrow key multiple times to recall previous commands.

5-3 Press the down-arrow key to scroll back through the commands.

5-4 Review the command history:


history

5-5 Rerun the most recent command:


redo

5-6 The most recent command is history, which is the final command in the history list.

5-7 Check the history again:


history

5-8 Rerun the command that was issued three commands ago:
redo -3

5-9 Find the vol show command in the history list, and run the command by using the command
number:
redo <command_number>

5-10 The number that is associated with the vol show command varies, based on the
number of commands that you ran in this session.

To optimize the use of the physical network ports of the cluster, you aggregate the network links. You
then create the VLAN tags to match the VLANs that are defined in the IT environment and assign them
to the aggregated network links.

Exercise 2: Managing Virtual Network Resources
In this exercise, you manage virtual network resources, including IPspaces, broadcast domains, and
subnets. You create data LIFs and examine LIF failover groups.

Objectives
This exercise enables you to do the following:
• Create an IPspace, broadcast domain, and subnet
• Create a subnet for the default IPspace
• Explore LIF failover groups
• Create data LIFs

Case Study
In the process of integrating the data centers of Dwurgle Enterprises with Zarrot Industries, it was found
that both companies had chosen to use the same IP address ranges for their networks. Instead of
reconfiguring the IP addresses on all the equipment from the Dwrugle data center, it was decided that
the NetApp ONTAP IPspaces feature would be used.
When new data LIFs are created, the IT staff would prefer that the IP address are assigned
automatically from a preconfigured pool. You create a pool of available IP addresses by creating a
subnet.
Backups are copied to a remote Zarrot Industries site over 10Gbps Ethernet links. Mr. Zarrot does not
want the backup traffic to interfere with the client traffic on the 25Gbps links. In a link failure, Mr. Zarrot
wants the intercluster LIFs to fail over to only other 10Gbps links, so you define a LIF failover group.
With the acquisition of Dwurgle Enterprises, additional personnel and their systems need access to the
NAS shares. To distribute the additional load across the cluster nodes and network ports, you create
some additional logical network interfaces.

Exercise Equipment
In this exercise, you use the following systems.
System Host Name IP Addresses User Name Password
Windows Server Jumphost 192.168.0.5 DEMO\Administrator Netapp1!
ONTAP cluster-management
cluster1 192.168.0.101 admin (case sensitive) Netapp1!

Module 5: Physical Storage Management
Exercise 1: Managing Physical Storage
In this exercise, you manage the physical storage resources of a cluster.

Objectives
This exercise enables you to do the following:
• Examine local storage tiers
• Expand an aggregate
• Create an aggregate

Case Study
Zarrot Industries has purchased additional storage space for its NetApp ONTAP system. After the
service professional has installed an additional disk shelf, the disks need to be joined into a local
storage tier (aggregate) before they can be used. Rather than adding the new disks to an existing
nearly full aggregate, it was decided to create an aggregate for the additional storage space.
Your colleague George forgot to include all the newly installed disks in the aggregate that he created.
You need to add the remaining unused disks (which are not needed as hot spares) into the new
aggregate.

Exercise 3: Creating a Flash Pool Aggregate
In this exercise, you convert an aggregate with only HDDs into a Flash Pool aggregate to increase
performance.

Objectives
This exercise enables you to do the following:
Convert an aggregate to a Flash Pool aggregate

Case Study
Sales at Zarrot Industries are growing rapidly. The company website is under a heavy load and would
benefit from faster I/O. Mr. Zarrot has purchased some SSD drives for the NetApp system to improve
I/O performance. Only data that is actively used should be stored in the SSD drives. You need to
enable automatic tiering of data by adding the SSDs to an existing aggregate with HDDs to create a
Flash Pool aggregate.

Exercise Equipment
In this exercise, you use the following systems.
System Host Name IP Addresses User Name Password
Windows Server Jumphost 192.168.0.5 DEMO\Administrator Netapp1!
ONTAP cluster-management
cluster1 192.168.0.101 admin (case sensitive) Netapp1!
LIF (cluster1)

Task 1: Convert an Aggregate to a Flash Pool Aggregate


Step Action

1-1 Open a PuTTY session for cluster1.

1-2 From the cluster shell for cluster1, convert the n2_hdd_1 aggregate into a Flash Pool
aggregate:
aggregate modify -aggregate n2_hdd_1 -hybrid-enabled true

1-3 Expand the Flash Pool aggregate with the following settings:
• Disk Class: SSD
• Number of Disks: 5
• RAID Type: RAID 4
• RAID Group Size: 8

storage aggregate add-disks -aggr n2_hdd_1 -diskclass solid-state


-diskcount 5 -raidtype raid4 -cache-raid-group-size 8

1-4 The RAID policies for the SSD RAID group (or groups) are independent from the
policies for the HDD RAID groups within a Flash Pool aggregate. For example, an
SSD RAID group in a Flash Pool aggregate can be configured with RAID 4 and a
group size of 8. The HDD RAID groups in the same Flash Pool aggregate can use
RAID DP with a group size of 16.

Module 6: Logical Storage Management
Exercise 1: Managing Data Volumes
In this exercise, you manage logical storage resources.

Objectives
This exercise focuses on enabling you to do the following:
• Create FlexVol volumes
• Expand a FlexVol volume
• Move a FlexVol volume

Case Study
Because the employees of Dwurgle Enterprises need to be migrated to Zarrot Industries, it was decided
to create a second FlexVol volume to store the new users’ home directories.
The users who are moving from Dwurgle Enterprises have more data than anticipated. The new volume
containing the home directories for the employees from Dwurgle Enterprises was too small when it was
created. You need to expand the size of the volume to accommodate the additional data to transfer.

Module 7: Data Access
Exercise 1: Configuring the NFS Protocol in a Storage VM
In this exercise, you use best practice tools to create a simple NFS server in a storage VM (storage
virtual machine, also known as SVM).

Objectives
This exercise focuses on enabling you to do the following:
• Configure a storage VM to host the NFS protocol
• Access an NFS export from a Linux client

Case Study
It might be a long time before the IT staff can fully integrate the authentication domain of Dwurgle
Enterprises with Zarrot Industries. In the meantime, the easiest way to enable Dwurgle employees to
access the NetApp system is to create a storage VM that uses the Dwurgle domain to authenticate user
identities.
You create a storage VM for Dwurgle and enable the NFS access protocol.
You create an NFS exported directory and verify that Dwurgle client hosts can access the directory.

Exercise Equipment
In this exercise, you use the following systems.
System Host Name IP Addresses User Name Password

Exercise 5: Configuring the S3 Protocol in a Storage VM
In this exercise, you use best practice tools to create a Simple Storage Service (S3) server in a storage
VM. The S3 protocol and NAS protocols can coexist in the same storage VM. However, S3 user
accounts are separate from NFS and SMB users and do not belong to the same authentication domain.
Therefore, NetApp recommends creating a separate storage VM for S3.

Objectives
This exercise focuses on enabling you to do the following:
• Create a storage VM to host the S3 protocol
• Create and verify S3 buckets
• Create S3 user accounts
• Access an S3 bucket from an S3 client

Case Study
Zarrot Industries wants to create an S3 object store to support mobile-friendly applications.
You create a storage VM to host the S3 object store and enable the S3 access protocol.
You create S3 user accounts to control access to the S3 object store.
You create an S3 bucket and verify that users can access it.

Exercise Equipment
In this exercise, you use the following systems.
ƒ Host Name IP Addresses User Name Password
Windows Server Jumphost 192.168.0.5 DEMO\Administrator Netapp1!
ONTAP cluster-management
cluster1 192.168.0.101 admin (case sensitive) Netapp1!

Exercise 6: Managing NAS Storage VMs
In this exercise, you use best practice tools to manage storage VMs (storage virtual machines, also
known as SVMs) that have NAS protocols enabled.

Objectives
This exercise focuses on enabling you to do the following:
• Migrate and rehome a NAS data LIF
• Mirror the storage VM root volume to protect the namespace
• Manage volume tiering policies

Case Study
The NetApp cluster node needs to be brought down so that a new expansion controller board can be
installed. To avoid disturbing the NAS clients that are actively using the system, you can move the
logical network interface through which the clients access the system to a different node in the cluster.
Temporarily migrate the LIF to another network port, or rehome the LIF if the move is permanent.
Storage VMs that serve NAS protocols provide a namespace. Keep the namespace accessible to NAS
client hosts by mirroring the storage VM root volume to a different node in the cluster.
Modify the Fabric Pool volume tiering policy so that user data is moved from the performance tier to the
cloud tier without waiting for the user data to cool first.

Exercise Equipment
In this exercise, you use the following systems.
System Host Name IP Addresses User Name Password
Windows Server jumphost 192.168.0.5 DEMO\Administrator Netapp1!
ONTAP cluster-management
cluster1 192.168.0.101 admin (case sensitive) Netapp1!

1-15 Reassign the home port of c1_svm2_nas_lif1 to port e0f, and leave the home node as
cluster1-01:
net int modify -vserver c1_svm2 -lif c1_svm2_nas_lif1 -home-port e0f

1-16 Review the home port again:


net int show -vserver c1_svm2

1-17 Answer the following questions:


 Did the LIF move? _____
 What is the status of the LIF home? _____

1-18 Issue a revert command, which sends the LIF to its new home port:
net int revert *

1-19 The asterisk (*) wildcard is a positional parameter that represents the LIF name. The
revert command reverts all LIFs that are not on their home ports.

1-20 Review the status of the LIFs again:


net int show -vserver c1_svm2

Create Load-Sharing Mirrors of the Storage VM Root Volume


This task is a requirement for protecting the namespace. Load-sharing mirrors can be created only in
the ONTAP clustershell CLI.

Step Action

2-1 Open a PuTTY session to cluster1.

2-2 Identify storage VM root volumes and the aggregate and node that the volumes reside on.
vol show *root -fields aggregate,node
Sample output:
vserver volume aggregate node
------- ------------ --------- -----------
c1_svm1 c1_svm1_root n1_hdd_1 cluster1-01
c1_svm2 c1_svm2_root n2_hdd_1 cluster1-02
c1_svm3 c1_svm3_root n1_hdd_2 cluster1-01
c1_svm6 c1_svm6_root n2_hdd_4 cluster1-02
4 entries were displayed.

2-3 You must create a load-sharing mirror of the root volume for each NAS storage VM in
the cluster. You can create the mirror on any node other than the one containing the
root volume, preferably in a different high-availability (HA) pair.

2-4 In this example, the root volume for svm1 (svm1_root) is located in aggregate n1_data_001
attached to storage node cluster1-01, so create the load sharing mirror volume on storage
node cluster1-02:
volume create -vserver c1_svm1 -volume c1_svm1_root_LS_1
-aggregate n2_hdd_1 -type DP

2-5 Answer yes to any warning messages.

2-6 Although the volume is a load-sharing mirror, you must first create the volume as a
data protection volume, and then change the volume type to load-sharing mirror.

2-7 Verify that a volume for load-sharing has been created:


volume show -vserver c1_svm1 -fields node
Sample output:
vserver volume node
------- ------------ -----------
c1_svm1 c1_svm1_root cluster1-01
c1_svm1 c1_svm1_root_LS_1

Step Action
3-8 The command fails because ONTAP software, by default, does not permit users with
superuser privileges to write to NFS exported volumes.

3-9 On cluster1, modify the export policy to enable superuser access to the FlexGroup volume:
vserver export-policy rule modify -vserver c1_svm2
-policyname default -ruleindex 1 -superuser any

3-10 Granting superuser access to NFS volumes compromises security and should not be
done in production environments.

3-11 Return to the PuTTY session for the Linux system and create a file:
touch NFS_testfile

3-12 List the files and directories in the FlexGroup volume:


ls -la
