NetApp Certified Implementation Engineer – SAN, E-Series — Question 61

You have an ESXi cluster with VMware VMFS LUNs on an AFF A400 system. After troubleshooting performance issues, you determine that timeout best practices are not set on the hosts.
In this scenario, which NetApp tool would apply the best practice settings?

Answer options

• A. SnapManager
• B. SAN Host Utilities
• C. SnapCenter Plug-in for VMware vSphere
• D. Virtual Storage Console (VSC)

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The Virtual Storage Console (VSC) is specifically designed to manage VMware environments and can apply best practice settings for timeout configurations. The other options, while useful for various tasks, do not provide the same level of integration and functionality for managing VMware timeout settings in a NetApp context.
