NETAPP CERTIFIED STORAGE
ASSOCIATE(NSO-145) LATEST EXAM 2024-2025
ACTUAL EXAM QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
ANSWER
Identify NetApp storage efficiency technologies? - (answer)Compression
Deduplication
FlexClone
FlexVol Volumes
RAID-DP
Thin Provisioning
What is Compression? - (answer)Data ONTAP does not rewrite the same
patterns, to decrease the amount of space used while maximizing efficiency.
What is Deduplication? - (answer)Save storage by not storing multiple copies of
the same application, but instead creates pointers aimed at the one copy of the
application(ex. 1 copy of Windows Server 2008 for 10 VMs saves us 90% storage)
What is FlexClone? - (answer)
What is FlexVol Volumes? - (answer)
What is Raid-DP? - (answer)It is a double-parity Raid 6, which prevents data loss
when up to two drives fail.

What is Thing Provisioning? - (answer)It is an allocate on demand model. NetApp
will oversubscribe free space in order to get the maximum use out available
memory.
What are the main NetApp data protection and disaster recovery technologies? -
(answer)SnapShots
SnapMirror
SnapRestore
SnapVualt
SnapManager
What are SnapShots? - (answer)A SnapShot is a point-in-time file system copy
with little to no impact on preformance and minimal storage consumption. It is
ideal for online backups and user-driven recovery(manually initiated).
What does the SnapMirror solution do? - (answer)The SnapMirror solution
mirrors data to another storage controller or cluster, or even a remote location. If
the main storage unit should fail the destination takes over operations.
What is SnapRestore? - (answer)A software that requires no training and will
allow you to recover entire databases in seconds. SnapRestore uses you SnapShot
copies.
