Hello , I am planning to implement AFF400 NVMe/FC for SAP HANA and Vmware. I need some inputs on the design. What is the best recommendations for SVM. can I create one dedicated SVM for the NVMe protocol. Recently I read if I enable NVMe other protocols can't be enabled.

We setup to NetAppHCI 1.8P1 on H300E/S. NDE normaly finish and looks ok. We running few weeks. But I logged in mnode today. "One or more vCenter instances cannot be reached, causing some information to be unavailable." appear GUI. We check ESX OK (PowerON) and accessble of ICMP. vCenter GUI looks ok( Both (two) esx server running)

Dear all, My customer has installed 11.50.2P1 on his E2812 E-Series Arrays. I see that the the 11.50.3R2 release is the one recommended for 11.50 versions. I would like to determine if that's worth upgrading to 11.50.3R2 and I would need a release note for this version. From link https://docs.netapp.com/ess-11/index.jsp, I can get the global release note but that only tells that "OS 11.50.3 This version includes only minor enhancements and fixes.", that's not enough. How can I get the release notes for each specific sub version ? Is the only solution to use the mysupport.netapp.com/Download section and select each specific release ? Many thanks Fred

I am not sure if this question has been answered earlier. If it has been please assist me with the post in which it is answered. I am migrating a switchless FAS 8040 cluster running Ontap 9.5 to a switchless AFF 220 cluster. The raw space on AFF 220 is less than that on the FAS 8040 considering the better space savings AFF gives with deduplication and compression. I have opted for SVM snapmirror to migrate the data, however the snapmirror initialization failed due to space unavailability on the AFF. I have broken the SVM relationship and have started storage efficiency operations on the AFF volumes. The question I have is - If I resync the SVM snapmirror will it overwrite the efficiency options for the volumes? If yes, then what is my best option to migrate the data from the FAS to AFF for a switchless cluster?
