NetApp Certified Implementation Engineer – SAN, Specialist — Question 7

Which two conditions would prevent an ONTAP upgrade? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Offline LIF
• B. Offline volume
• C. Established NFS sessions
• D. Established iSCSI sessions
• E. Failed disk

Correct answer: B, E

Explanation

An offline volume (B) will prevent an ONTAP upgrade because the upgrade process requires all volumes to be online for successful migration. Similarly, a failed disk (E) can cause issues during the upgrade as it can lead to data integrity problems or system instability, making it impossible to complete the upgrade. The other options do not directly prevent an upgrade from proceeding.
