Hello all,

A customer asked if this is possible to use WFA to deliver SVMs and activate NFSv4.0 and NFSv4.1.

Thank you.

Hi,

I can't give you precise yes or no at this moment, but I am 99% sure that you can achive that. Here are some documents that you can refer to the links below:

Basically, it's a front-end scripting tool in a GUI form (Underneath it is going to use powershell/perl to create a script based on your inputs). I have use this tool couple of years back for testing purpose and we did some agg & vol roll outs.

If you read the section in the following link (old one): (The logic is: There are tasks you perform - Filling up the form, all the bits & pices (svm name,dns,lif,protocol,credentials) and WFA will take those inputs and run the workflow (Baiscally executing powershell/perl script).

Regaring your precise query : I will let someone who has actually done it answer you or someone from WFA Development team. I guess, when you select 'NFS' it selects all the versions, and later you can uncheck it . It will need a combination of WFA and then some CLI on NetApp to verify if all has gone well.

What versions of Workflow Automation's 'WFA package for Managing clustered Data ONTAP' correspond to versions of OnCommand Unified Manager?
