NetApp SAN Implementation Workshop 3.0

Prerequisites:

NetApp Certified Data Management Administrator (NCDA) or SAN Administration on Data ONTAP 7.3 course or ANCDA course, or Working knowledge of NetApp-specific SAN implementation techniques, such as iscsi, fcp, igroup and lun commands.

Course Description:

This workshop shows how to connect Windows, vSphere, and Linux hosts using FC and iSCSI protocols into a NetApp storage area network (SAN).

This course is intended for those who implement SAN solutions using NetApp storage systems.

This course includes the following modules:

Course Objectives

• Define and describe storage area networks using Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP) and Internet SCSI (iSCSI)
• Configure Windows Server 2008 R2, vSphere (ESX 4.0), Red Hat 5.3, and Data ONTAP for iSCSI connectivity
• Configure Windows Server 2008 R2, vSphere (ESX 4.0), Red Hat 5.3, and Data ONTAP for FC connectivity
• Create and access a LUN by way of FCP and iSCSI from Windows Server 2008 R2, vSphere (ESX 4.0), and Red Hat 5.3
• Install and use SnapDrive for Windows and SnapDrive for Linux to create LUNs, Snapshot LUNs, restore LUNs from a Snapshot copy, and remove LUNs
• Size, clone, back up and recover LUNs on Windows Server 2008 R2, vSphere (ESX 4.0), and Red Hat 5.3 Troubleshoot SAN connectivity and performance issues
