I'm just trying to satisfy an alert for not having remote backups. I know the command, but I'm not sure how to upload to our sharepoint. I have access to a folder but not sure how to apply the command.
system configuration backup settings -destination <url>?
Anyone do this or are the default local backups enough in the real world?
Thanks

I am Scott Peiffer, Sr. Director from the ONTAP System Manager Product Management & Technical Marketing team. Thank you to our many passionate customers and partners for sharing your feedback on System Manager 9.8. This post is to provide you with background on the changes being made to ONTAP, information on how to learn more about these changes, and guidance on how best to provide feedback to NetApp. ONTAP System Manager simplification is to directly address your changing needs as you work to support larger data sets, with new applications while expanding into hybrid multi-cloud environments. The simplification effort has been data driven. Significant time was spent on determining and setting smart defaults based on NetApp best practices, automating, and simplifying many of the everyday tasks, and then prioritized workflows that were most frequently used. Since ONTAP provides AIQ with metrics on feature usage, we were able to understand what features our customer use most and what is infrequently used. The feedback that has been received is being considered and prioritized. To be transparent, there are other items which will not be addressed as they are considered complex, infrequent, or unneeded based on our desire to provide our customers with self-managing storage. We also hear analysts, for example Gartner stating by 2023, 60% of organizations will use infrastructure automation tools as part of their DevOps toolchains, and improve application deployment efficiency by 25%. (source: Market Guide for Infrastructure Automation Tools, May 2020). API driven integrations will be essential to our customers success. Anecdotally, we have heard in our virtual EBCs that many of our globals and large enterprise customers are managing their infrastructure with tools such as Service Now and Remedy, and even homegrown tools that consolidate service management across various vendors in their data center, all based on API services. There are a number of such tools that operate in infrastructure and application context that we are looking to support... To aid you in this transition we have published an extensive set of documents here: https://community.netapp.com/t5/Tech-ONTAP-Blogs/Where-can-I-learn-more-about-System-Manager-9-8/ba-p/162249 Please continue to share your feedback though your NetApp account teams! This is how we can best aggregate feedback, address your needs and respond. Help us along this journey with your improvement suggestions. Sincerely, Ravi Chhabria (VP Engineering) Scott Peiffer (Sr. Director ONTAP System Manager Product Management & Technical Marketing)

Hi Team, Would there be any problems with this? The idea is to have 30 days of snapshots on both the primary and the secondary site, but the primary has an AFF tiering with a Snapshot-Only policy to a FAS object tier and the secondary is a FAS8200. Since SnapMirror is only sending changes, I'm assuming that the replication engine wouldn't have any issues with the cold data blocks in the object tier, but I want to make sure. Thanks!

Hi guys, I have a switched cluster ONTAP with a pair of FAS8080, but a node is in takeover and i can´t do giveback because IC is down. The ONTAP version is 9.1P13. I can´t restart all environment to try reestablish the normal operations. So, I have another pair of FAS8080 and i want to add them to this cluster. After this operation i will can move volumes to this new pair of 8080 and decomiss the old. The question is: can i add other pair of FAS8080 to this cluster in takeover state? Accord https://docs.netapp.com/ontap-9/topic/com.netapp.doc.dot-cm-sag/GUID-B13FF812-785E-4E62-9914-30E7A8F51A4C.html i need to have more then half of cluster nodes up to do this. Thanks in advance!
