Applies to

  • ONTAP Select
  • VMware ESXi
  • ISO

Answer

  • During the deployment of ONTAP Select, an ISO file containing the configuration information for the node may be used.
  • This ISO file can be mounted for the purpose of building and configuring instances of ONTAP Select.
  • Once the build is complete and the system is running normally, the ISO file is not needed for daily operations, and it can be unmounted without issues. 
  • However, it is not necessary to unmount the ISO file, and the steps to do so are not included in the deployment guide, it is suggested to leave it connected.
