In this Partner-only course, you increase your proficiency as a NetApp® ONTAP® software engineer by learning how to troubleshoot ONTAP environments. Specifically, you learn how to troubleshoot the management component, scale-out networking, NAS protocols (NFS and SMB), and SAN protocols (iSCSI). From lectures, demonstrations, and active exercises, you learn how to isolate issues, verify configurations, view logs, view trace messages, and use event management system messages for troubleshooting.
TARGET AUDIENCE:
• NetApp Technical Support Engineers • NetApp Support Services Certified Partner Engineers • NetApp Professional Services Engineers
COURSE PREREQUISITES:
A working knowledge of ONTAP software and NAS and SAN protocol in addition to the 3 day OT-CLU-A Cluster Administration class
