NetApp Certified Design Engineer – SAN — Question 8

You use iSCSI to present a LUN to a newly installed Windows 2016 Server. You have created the volume and LUN on the NetApp cluster. When you perform a hardware rescan on the Windows host, you cannot see the newly presented storage.
What are three reasons for this problem? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. The protocol has not been enabled on the NetApp cluster.
• B. You need to add the IQN of the Windows host to the newly created LUN.
• C. The IQN of the Windows host is not included in the igroup for the new LUN.
• D. The wrong igroup has been associated with the new LUN.
• E. The volume has not been enabled for iSCSI access.

Correct answer: A, B, D

Explanation

The correct answer includes A, B, and D because if the iSCSI protocol is disabled, the host won't see the LUN. Additionally, if the Windows host's IQN is not added to the LUN or if the wrong igroup is linked, the storage will remain hidden to the server. Option C is incorrect as the problem specifically relates to the configuration of the LUN, not the igroup itself.
