To manage SnapVault relationships with an NDMP management application, which credential must be specified?

• A. Directory path
• B. Volume and Qtree
• C. SnapVault license
• D. Username and password

Answer: (D)

NDMP authentication is what backs management of SnapVault relationships. The NDMP management application connects to the NetApp filer using an NDMP user account, so it must supply a username and password that have the appropriate rights to manage SnapVault relationships. A directory path, volume and Qtree, or a SnapVault license aren’t used as login credentials for this operation. In short, you need the NDMP username and password to configure and manage the SnapVault relationship.
