Applies to

  • ONTAP 9
  • ONTAP S3
  • Logical Interface (LIF)

Answer

  • No, having a dedicated management LIF is not required on an ONTAP S3 SVM but as a best practice, LIFs used for data access (data-s3-server) and LIFs used for management operations (management-https) should be separate.
  • Both services should not be enabled on the same LIF.
