Considerations and requirements for using FabricPool

Additional Information

  • As with snapmirror, time to complete a full backup of a volume which has much of its data tiered out will take longer.
  • The amount of time will depend on
    • the amount of data that has been tiered,
    • the interconnect between Ontap and the object store,
    • as well as the sizing/performance of the object store itself.

 

  • RPO calculations should factor this when planning NDMP for FabricPool
  • When restoring data into a FabricPool
    • all data will be placed in the performance tier.
    • Ensure the performance tier has enough space before attempting a restore.
