The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Cisco UCS Director displays all managed components in each NetApp Cluster Mode (C-Mode) account. These components can be hardware or software.
You can monitor each component and perform tasks such as creating, deleting, and modifying these components. The following components are monitored in a C-Mode account:
Clustered Data ONTAP is the enabler for NetApp scale-out storage configurations. The basic building blocks of a cluster are the familiar NetApp HA pairs in which two storage controllers are interconnected to the same set of disks. If one controller suffers a failure, the other takes over its storage and continues serving data.
In a Data ONTAP cluster, each storage controller is referred to as a cluster node, and nodes are allowed to be of different models and sizes. In a cluster, it is connected to other nodes over a cluster network.
A node is also connected to the disk shelves that provide physical storage for the Data ONTAP Cluster-Mode system or to third-party storage arrays that provide array LUNs for Data ONTAP use.
Disks are grouped together in an aggregate. These aggregates provide storage to the volumes that are associated with the aggregate.
When you click Disks, all the disks that are available in that account are displayed. Click the row of the disk and then click View Details to view the summary details of the disk.
A logical interface (LIF) is an IP address associated with a physical network port; that is, an Ethernet port. In the event of a component failure, a logical interface can failover or be migrated to a different physical port (potentially on other nodes) based on policies interpreted by the LIF manager. A LIF continues to provide network access despite the component failure. You can create multiple LIFs for a single SVM.

An aggregate is made up of one or more RAID groups of disks. Aggregates are used to manage plexes and RAID groups as these entities exist as part of an aggregate. You can increase the usable space in an aggregate by adding disks to existing RAID groups or by adding new RAID groups. After you have added disks to an aggregate, you cannot remove them to reduce storage space without deleting the aggregate.

Storage Virtual Machine (SVM), formerly known as Vserver, is a secure virtual storage server that supports multiple protocols and unified storage. Each SVM contains data volumes and one or more Logical Interfaces (LIFs) through which it serves data to the clients. SVMs securely isolate the shared virtualized data storage and network and appear as a single dedicated server to the clients. Each SVM has a separate administrator authentication domain and can be managed independently by its SVM administrator.

A port set consists of a group of Fibre Channel (FC) target ports. You bind a port set to an igroup to make the LUN available only on a subset of the storage system's target ports. Any host in the igroup can access the LUNs only by connecting to the target ports in the port set.
If an igroup is not bound to a port set, the LUNs mapped to the igroup are available on all of the storage system FC target ports. The igroup controls to which initiators LUNs are exported. The port set limits the target ports on which those initiators have access.

SnapMirror software is a disaster recovery and data distribution solution, whereas SnapVault is a backup solution that is exclusively used to archive data. SnapMirror mirrors data to one or more network filers at high speed over LAN or WAN connections. If a disaster occurs, the destination volume can be made as source (reverse SnapMirror). SnapVault is a collection of snapshot copies of the primary volume, which can be restored with minimal downtime when there is data loss or when a system is corrupted.
Both the SnapMirror and SnapVault relationships can be managed through SnapMirrors. SnapMirrorsdisplays both the SnapMirror and SnapVault data, with the Relationship Type column differentiating the data.
