ONTAP SAN Administration (SANADM)

 

Course Overview

In this course you will learn to about configuring ONTAP 9 Data Management Software for a SAN environment. The course provides information about block-level protocols, including FC, FCoE, and iSCSI, on Microsoft Windows Server, Linux and VMware ESXi host operating systems. Management of SAN storage provisioning, protocols, hosts, availability and data protection, using best practices, will also be discussed. Additionally, an introduction to NVMe over Fabrics (NVMe-oF) will be provided. This course will focus on ONTAP 9 functionality and includes lecture and a hands-on lab environment.
