Applies to

  • Ontap 9
  • Data Ontap 7 mode.
  • CIFS/SMB

Answer

  • Time taken for reporting a connection timeout depends on how many retry attempts are made by the host before reporting failure.
  • 7 mode system support up to SMB version 2 only which has lower number of retry attempts than SMB3, so the error such as STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME is reported much faster in 7 mode than C-mode where SMB3 connections are made.
