Course Content
The hands-on course covers the required knowledge from the following courses:
- Data ONTAP CIFS Administration (CIFS)
- Data ONTAP NFS Administration (NFS)
- NetApp Protection Software Administration (NPSA)
- Data ONTAP SAN Administration (SAN)
- High Availability (HA)
Who should attend
Network Professionals seeking the NCDA certification
This course is also valuable for those who need to perform in-depth support, administrative functions, and performance management for environments using any of the following enterprise storage solutions: CIFS, NFS, FCP, iSCSI protocols on a NetApp storage appliance running the Data ONTAP operating system.
Prerequisites
The following course is a prerequisite to the advanced boot camp:
Data ONTAP Fundamentals (DOTF)
NOTE: It is strongly recommended that you have attended the instructor-led DOTF course or have the equivalent practical experience with the NetApp ONTAP operating system before attending this advanced boot camp. The web-based version of DOTF will not provide sufficient preparation for those seeking NCDA certification upon completion of this course.
