NetApp NS0-528 Exam - Topic 3 Question 9 Discussion

Actual exam question for NetApp's NS0-528 exam

Question #: 9
Topic #: 3

You have set up a SnapMirror relationship between volumes in ClusterA and ClusterB. Both the clusters have the same NetApp ONTAP software release and platform. You have enabled Temperature Sensitive Storage Efficiency (TSSE) on the source volume.

How does TSSE affect the efficiency on the destination volume?

ATSSE settings are inherited by SnapMirror destination volumes by default.

BTSSE cannot be enabled for volumes in a SnapMirror relationship.

CTSSE must be manually configured on the destination volumes, otherwise the SnapMirror transfers will fail.

DTSSE settings are inherited by SnapMirror destination volumes only if the destination volume is less than 50% full.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

When Temperature Sensitive Storage Efficiency (TSSE) is enabled on a SnapMirror source volume, the settings are automatically inherited by the destination volume during SnapMirror initialization. This ensures consistent storage efficiency behavior across the replication relationship.

D) is interesting, but I’m not sure about that 50% rule.

I thought TSSE couldn't be used in SnapMirror setups?

Option C sounds like a trick question. Why would TSSE transfers fail if not manually configured? That doesn't make sense.

Option D is hilarious. As if the destination volume's fullness has anything to do with TSSE inheritance.

I'm not sure about TSSE, but I know SnapMirror usually just mirrors the source volume settings. Option A makes the most sense.

I thought TSSE was only for hot data, not for mirrored volumes. Option B seems more likely.

Option A is correct. TSSE settings are inherited by SnapMirror destination volumes by default.

I thought TSSE couldn't be enabled on destination volumes at all, but I'm not completely confident about that.

I feel like the destination volume's capacity might play a role in how TSSE works, but I can't remember the exact details.

I think there was a practice question that mentioned TSSE needing to be configured on both sides, but I can't recall if that was for SnapMirror specifically.

I remember something about TSSE and how it interacts with SnapMirror, but I'm not sure if it inherits settings automatically.

Ah, I think I've got it! The key here is understanding that TSSE is a volume-level setting, so it should be inherited by the destination volume during SnapMirror replication. I'm pretty confident that option A is the correct answer.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know TSSE is related to storage efficiency, but I'm not sure how it interacts with SnapMirror. I'll need to read through the question and options carefully to try to figure out the right approach.

Okay, let's see. I'm pretty sure TSSE is a storage efficiency feature, so it makes sense that it would be relevant for the destination volume as well. I'm leaning towards option A, where the TSSE settings are inherited by default, but I'll double-check the other options just to be sure.

Hmm, this one seems a bit tricky. I'm not too familiar with TSSE, so I'll need to think through the options carefully. I wonder if the TSSE settings are automatically applied to the destination volume, or if there's some additional configuration required.

I think the key here is understanding how TSSE works and how it interacts with SnapMirror. The question is asking about the effect on the destination volume, so I'll need to consider how TSSE settings are handled during the SnapMirror replication.
