An engineer Is implementing a data migration scenario for a customer who has multiple FC LUNs across multiple third-party SAN arrays. The engineer wants to use Foreign LUN Import (FLI) for the migration.

What is a requirement on the destination NetApp ONTAP cluster for FLI?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

When using Foreign LUN Import (FLI) for migrating LUNs from third-party SAN arrays to a NetApp ONTAP system, one of the requirements is to have at least one Fibre Channel (FC) port configured in target mode on the destination NetApp ONTAP cluster. This configuration is necessary to facilitate the migration process as the target mode port will accept and manage incoming data from the source SAN arrays.

For additional details, refer to:

Nope, just the FC port in target mode!

You need at least one FC port in target mode for FLI.

I’m leaning towards needing a valid NetApp XCP license, but I might be mixing it up with another migration scenario we studied.

I feel like the requirement is related to the FC ports, and it makes sense to have them in target mode for the destination cluster.

I think we practiced a question where a valid SnapMirror license was mentioned, but I can't recall if it was specifically for FLI.

I remember something about needing FC ports for FLI, but I'm not sure if it was initiator or target mode.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem pretty specific, so I'll need to make sure I understand the differences between them. I'll probably eliminate the ones that don't seem directly relevant and then try to decide between the remaining options.

Okay, I've got this. The requirement for the destination ONTAP cluster is that it needs to have at least one FC port in target mode. That's the correct answer, option D.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm not super familiar with the Foreign LUN Import feature, so I'll need to think through the requirements carefully. Let me re-read the question and options a few times to make sure I understand.

I think the key here is to focus on the requirements for the destination NetApp ONTAP cluster. The question is asking specifically about that, so I'll need to carefully review the options and select the one that matches.

Ha! I bet the engineer wishes they had a 'Teleport LUNs' option instead of dealing with all this SAN setup. Option D is the way to go.

I was debating between B and D, but D makes sense since the ONTAP cluster needs to be able to receive the LUNs.
