Considerations for the NetApp Storage Array

Before using the IntelliSnap feature for this storage array, read the following limitations and special conditions.

ONTAP

  • For ONTAP 9.5 and later:

    • SnapMirror Synchronous (SM-S) relations are not supported for the NetApp Open Replication feature.

    • If the volume of the file server that contains the LUN has an SM-S relationship configured, then IntelliSnap operations on that LUN are not supported.

Platforms

  • For IBM Power PC, IntelliSnap is supported only for 64-bit little endian platforms.

  • Supported on HP-UX running on Intel Itanium processors using Fibre Channel.

NetApp FabricPool

  • You can use the Commvault software with NetApp FabricPool with ONTAP 9.7 and more recent versions.

  • The Commvault software does not control tiering to and from supported platforms and the performance of NetApp FabricPool tiering.

  • Prior to ONTAP 9.8, NetApp FabricPool was only supported on SSD local tiers.

  • For more information about NetApp FabricPool, go to the NetApp website and search for "FabricPool best practices guide".

Storage Policies

  • Cloning a storage policy that is associated with OnCommand Unified Manager (OCUM) is not supported.
