Assuming you have recent enough Data ONTAP and Linux filesystem that supports fstrim, it can be done. E.g. ext4 does support it. I am not sure if NetApp explicitly qualifies specific combinations of DataONTAP/Linux distro version/filesystem type, you have to check IMT.

SDU cannot and does not perform space reclamation.
