At what stage is a write acknowledged to a client?
Write Acknowledgment in NetApp ONTAP:
In a clustered ONTAP system, write requests are acknowledged to the client only after they are securely stored in NVRAM on both the local node and its HA (High Availability) partner.
This ensures redundancy and data protection in case of a node failure.
Why Other Options Are Incorrect:
A . when the write is present in the local node RAM and NVRAM:
Writes are not acknowledged until the HA partner also stores the data in its NVRAM.
B . when the write has been flushed to disk:
Writes are acknowledged before they are written to disk, as NVRAM ensures durability.
D . when the write has been flushed from NVRAM to RAM:
Data is not acknowledged based on RAM; NVRAM on both nodes is the requirement.
NetApp's 'ONTAP Write I/O Processing Guide' explains the role of NVRAM and HA in write acknowledgment.
'Data Protection in ONTAP' highlights the synchronization of NVRAM between HA partners.
