Is ndmpd supported on Snaplock Systems running ONTAP 9.7 / 9.8?

Hi ONTAP Gurus,

Could some let me know if NDMP service is allowed on ONTAP Systems with Snaplock Compliance enabled. 

(i) NDMPd services in Cluster scope (vserver scope)

(ii) ndmpd services in Node Scope mode

Thank you

Hi there!

Absolutely is, in both node and vserver scope. Snaplock doesn't prevent reading, only modifying.

This link covers more details - https://docs.netapp.com/ontap-9/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.netapp.doc.dot-cm-ptbrg%2FGUID-74714D4C-38EB-49A7-88D8-6FC549E02A41.html

Hope this helps!
