NS0-528 practice examsIn development

NetApp Certified Implementation Engineer - Data Protection

NetApp · advanced · 90 minutes

In developmentThis course is still being brought to our full standard. The questions and notes are usable, but they have not yet been checked line by line against the vendor’s own training.

SnapMirror, SnapVault and MetroCluster: why an ONTAP snapshot is a pointer operation and what follows from that, replication by changed blocks with the schedule as the recovery point, retention against failover, storage virtual machine disaster recovery, then synchronous replication and its latency cost, MetroCluster switchover with a mediator, testing with clones rather than breaks, and reading lag time as the recovery point actually achieved.

What the exam covers

The domains our question bank is built on. We have not yet transcribed this vendor’s own outline for this exam.

Snapshots, SnapMirror and SnapVault	Not published
Synchronous replication, MetroCluster and operations	Not published

Two sample questions

Two of the 180, with the answer and the explanation.

1. What does switchback complete?

The return of each site to serving its own data — correct
The deletion of the mirrored plexes at one site as expected
The reversal of the replication relationship
The failover of the hosts to the second site

Why: The pair is then back in its normal, mutually mirrored state.

2. What does a baseline transfer establish?

The full initial copy — correct
Only the changed blocks
The retention policy
The cluster peering

Why: The baseline copies the entire dataset so subsequent updates need only send changes.
