NetApp Certified Data Administrator (NCDA) – ONTAP — Question 2

A customer wants a storage solution with a zero RPO and near-zero RTO for all their NAS workloads.
Which NetApp solution meets these needs?

Answer options

• A. storage VM disaster recovery (SVM DR)
• B. MetroCluster over IP
• C. SnapMirror Business Continuity (SMBC)
• D. SnapMirror Synchronous (SM-S)

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is SnapMirror Business Continuity (SMBC) because it is designed to provide continuous data availability with zero RPO and near-zero RTO. The other options, while useful for disaster recovery or high availability, do not specifically meet the requirements of zero RPO and near-zero RTO for all NAS workloads.
