STEP ACTION
12. On the Disk Layout tab, you can see detailed information about disks that belong
to an aggregate.
plex0: If an aggregate is mirrored, two plexes are listed: plex0 and plex1. The aggr0
aggregate is not mirrored, so only plex0 is listed.
rg0: The disks of an aggregate are divided into RAID groups. RAID stands for Redundant Array
of independent Disks.
Each RAID group contains data disks and parity disks. RAID groups help preserve data when
disks fail. If one or two of the disks fail in a RAID group, the data is restored from the remaining
disks and the parity disks of the RAID group.
The aggr0 aggregate contains only three disks. The RAID type is RAID-DP; two of the disks in
agg0 are parity disks: parity and dparity.
13. In the navigation pane on the left, under Storage, select Disks.
All disks in shelves that are physically attached to the node are listed in the right pane:
14. Select a spare disk and review the zeroing status and broken details shown in the Properties

13. You should use the storage disk zerospares command to periodically
initialize spares.
When you destroy an aggregate, the disks that were formerly a part of the
aggregate still have data written to them. To use the disks in a different aggregate, you
must initialize them.
To initialize disks, the system writes a zero in every block on the disk. The process is
referred to as “zeroing” the disks. Zero disks to prepare for adding disks to aggregates
in a Data ONTAP cluster.
14. List physical and logical interface information for the Data ONTAP cluster:
cluster1::> network interface show
15. In clustered Data ONTAP, the physical network interfaces are not directly configured
with IP addresses. Instead, you create a logical interface (LIF) and assign it to the
physical network adapter.
16. In this exercise, you used OnCommand System Manager and Data ONTAP cluster-
level commands to locate hardware information about Data ONTAP cluster nodes.

TASK 2: CONFIRM THAT THE DATA LIF ALLOWS THE NFS PROTOCOL
In this task, you confirm that there is a LIF that supports the NFS protocol. You also use the ping
command to test connectivity from the Linux server to the SVM.
STEP ACTION
1. Open Configuration and click Network Interfaces. Ensure that there is a data LIF that
supports the NFS protocol and that the data LIF is listed as Enabled.
2. In the lower section of the Network Interfaces pane, review the detailed information about
the CIFS and NFS data LIF.

NetApp University - Do Not Distribute
STEP ACTION
3. Although the NFS protocol is allowed, you must also ensure that a data LIF
is available that allows the NFS protocol.
Because CIFS and NFS were both licensed and allowed from the Vserver Setup
wizard, the NFS protocol was allowed on the data LIF along with the CIFS protocol.
If you do not allow the NFS protocol from the Vserver Setup wizard, then you must use the
Network Interface Create Wizard to create a separate NFS data LIF. After a LIF has been
created, it cannot be changed.
4. From the desktop of the Windows 2012 Server, use PuTTY to connect to the Linux server.
Log in with the username root and password Netapp123:
5. Ensure that the Linux server can use the system name of the SVM to resolve the data LIF IP
address, by entering this command in the Linux server CLI:
ping svm1_data
6. If the Linux server cannot resolve the system name of the SVM, then check the
svm1_data host record in the DNS Manager.

TASK 3: CONFIGURE MULTIPROTOCOL ACCESS FOR WINDOWS AND UNIX USERS
In this task, you use OnCommand System Manager to ensure that the pcuser account was created. From
the Name Mapping pane, you also map the UNIX root account to the Windows domain administrator.
STEP ACTION
1. In OnCommand System Manager, expand Vservers and cluster1, and then click svm1. In the
Quick Links section, click UNIX Local Users and Groups:
2. In the UNIX pane, click the Users tab and ensure that pcuser is listed:
3. Windows users who attempt to access NFS volumes or qtrees are automatically
mapped to the UNIX user named pcuser.
The Vserver Setup wizard automatically creates pcuser.
4. If NFS is not licensed at the time that the Vserver is created, or if multiprotocol is not
selected, pcuser is not automatically created. If pcuser is not created, multiprotocol
access does not work.

STEP ACTION
5. Navigate to svm1, Configuration, Local Users and Groups. Then click Name Mapping:
6. Data ONTAP uses name-mapping patterns to obtain correct user credentials. Data
ONTAP then changes the Windows or UNIX username to match the security style
of the data that a client wants to access.

NetApp University - Do Not Distribute
STEP ACTION
8. In the Add Name Mapping Entry dialog box, configure a rule that converts the UNIX root
account to the LEARN domain administrator user account:
Direction: UNIX to Windows
Pattern: root
Replacement: learn\\administrator
9. The first backslash “\” in the “domain\\user” replacement pattern is used as an escape
so that Data ONTAP can properly parse the domain\user account statement.
Whenever you enter a Windows domain and username, use the double-backslash
domain\\<username> format.
10. The position number gives priority to a user with multiple matches due to the use of
wildcards in name-mapping patterns. However, Data ONTAP uses the first name-
mapping pattern that matches, without regard to priority.
To avoid issues, first remove existing name mappings. Then add new name mappings to the
SVM in the order that you want them to be processed.
12. Verify that the UNIX root user is mapped to the Windows domain administrator user account:

STEP ACTION
14. In the Add Name Mapping Entry dialog box, configure a rule that converts the LEARN domain
administrator user account back to the UNIX root account:
Direction: Windows to UNIX
Position: 2
Pattern: learn\\administrator
Replacement: root
15. Data ONTAP can now map the UNIX root user to the Windows learn\administration
user. Data ONTAP can also grant the UNIX root user permissions to volumes
that are configured in the NTFS security and require Windows access control
lists (ACLs) to access.
You can now export the NTFS volumes that you created in earlier exercises. Proceed to the
next task to add a rule to the default export policy.

TASK 4: ADD A RULE TO THE DEFAULT EXPORT POLICY
Data ONTAP automatically assigns the default export policy to new volumes. However, the default
export policy of a new SVM has no rules and therefore grants no access to clients.
In this task, you add a rule to the default export policy and test access to volumes that are assigned the
default export policy.

STEP ACTION
13. You have completed the configurations required to access a volume on the SVM
from a Linux server.
The SVM and data LIF must allow the NFS protocol.
If the volumes were created with NTFS security style, you must configure multiprotocol
access by mapping UNIX users to the equivalent Windows users.
You must configure an export policy with rules that allow access to UNIX users.
Your SVM serves your Windows, UNIX, and Linux users. However, you can use the
volume security type and export policies to restrict access to CIFS or NFS.
