You have proven skills in positioning NetApp® disaster recovery solutions, assessing customer data storage requirements, and implementing backup and recovery solutions.

NCIE-DP logos and certificates will be granted to those individuals who successfully obtain NetApp Certified Data Administrator, ONTAP (NCDA) certification, then pass the NetApp Certified Implementation Engineer—Data Protection (NS0-525) exam.

NCIE-Data Protection Specialist candidates must first achieve the NetApp Certified Data Administrator (NCDA) certification.

We recommend that NetApp Certified Implementation Engineer—Data Protection candidates have six to 12 months of experience with: NetApp ONTAP replication technology, planning and implementing data protection solutions, configuring backup and recovery software, operating backup and disaster recovery deployments.

Recommended Training and Resources:
ONTAP Data Protection Administration (ILT)
ONTAP MetroCluster Installation (ILT)
ONTAP Data Protection Fundamentals (WBT)

To enroll in NetApp University training, you will need a NetApp Support Site account.

The NS0-525 exam includes 60 test questions, with an allotted time of 1-1/2 hours to complete. In countries where English is not the native language, candidates for whom English is not their first language will be granted a 30-minute extension to the allotted examination completion time.

Your results will be available in CertCenter two (2) to five (5) business days after you complete your exam.

The NS0-525 exam includes the following topics:

ONTAP Replication Technology
Describe how ONTAP replication technology works within a NetApp Data Fabric including Snapshot copies and SnapMirror replication
Describe how high-availability configurations operate within an ONTAP Cluster
Describe how a MetroCluster configuration can ensure business continuity
Identify the difference between synchronous and asynchronous replication for applications and VM


Planning ONTAP Data Protection Implementation
Identify ONTAP data protection solutions in traditional on-premise configurations, private clouds, hybrid cloud, and storage tiering environments
Demonstrate how to apply ONTAP guidelines and use tools: sizing guidelines, Interoperability Matrix Tool, RPO calculator, Savings Calculator, Hardware Universe
Describe the implementation steps for application- and virtualization-specific workloads, including Snapshot retention policies
Distinguish between a consistent file system and an application-consistent backup
Demonstrate how to develop a course of action to recover customer ONTAP data after a disaster
Identify how to implement security related to ONTAP data protection: NetApp Volume Encryption, NetApp Security Encryption, SnapLock, key management
Describe how to plan for ONTAP data protection in the Data Fabric

Configuring Data Protection Software
Describe how to configure ONTAP Snapshots, SnapMirror policies, SnapMirror for SVMs, and MetroCluster using the command-line interface and System Manager
Identify which tool to use to set up ONTAP-based storage and schedule policies

Operating Data Protection Deployments
Demonstrate how to back up or restore NAS, SAN, VM, object and application data using ONTAP
Demonstrate how to locate and protect unprotected ONTAP volumes using Active IQ Unified Manager
Describe how to use WorkFlow Automator (WFA) products to orchestrate failover and failback for application servers
Describe how to use SnapCenter as an external backup application
Describe how to verify that backup and replication jobs are up-to-date
Demonstrate how to validate that an ONTAP backup is successfully restored

Best Practices
Describe strategies for implementing ONTAP data protection products in the data fabric using SnapMirror, MetroCluster, Unified Data Replication (UDP), network compression, Cloud Backup
Describe how to calculate transfer time based on the customer’s available bandwidth and latency distance for ONTAP data protection products
Describe storage efficiency for ONTAP data protection
Describe automation policies for managing volume capacity
Describe monitoring or reporting techniques for ONTAP data protection solutions

QUESTION 1
You have successfully deployed a primary and a secondary ONTAP cluster. You want to set up an intercluster
SnapMirror relationship between your primary and secondary sites.
In this scenario, which two actions are required before accomplishing this task? (Choose two.)

A. NDMP must be enabled.
B. The SVMs must be peered.
C. The primary and secondary clusters must be peered.
D. The Snapshot schedule must be configured.

Answer: A,B
Section: (none)

QUESTION 2
A customer wants to set up an SVM DR relationship to protect a source SVM that is dedicated for NAS file
services. The source and destination clusters are running ONTAP 9.5.
In this scenario, which application accomplishes this task?

A. OnCommand Unified Manager
B. OnCommand System Manager
C. SnapCenter
D. Snap Creator

Answer: B

QUESTION 3
After deploying an ONTAP Select 2 node HA cluster at a remote site, you successfully perform manual
takeover and giveback before placing the cluster into production. After the cluster runs in production for a
week, you notice that you can no longer perform a manual takeover.
In this scenario, what are two causes of this problem? (Choose two.)

A. There is a network disruption between sites.
B. ONTAP Deploy has been deleted.
C. The vSphere HA service has failed.
D. The HA interconnect cables have been removed.

Answer: A,D

QUESTION 4
A customer infrastructure consists of multiple ONTAP clusters, both physical and virtual. The clusters
replicate some data with each other. You want to generate a comprehensive report of all the replication that is
present on the infrastructure.
In this scenario, which tool accomplishes this task?

A. OnCommand System Manager
B. Storage Replication Adapter
C. OnCommand Unified Manager
D. OnCommand Workflow Automation

Answer: A

QUESTION 5
You have set up a SnapMirror relationship between two SVMs for data protection. The data in the source
volume is unavailable due to an event related to a virus infection leading to data corruption.
In this scenario, which three actions are required to activate the SnapMirror destination volume and provide
data access to the users? (Choose three.)

A. Perform a SnapMirror quiesce operation.
B. Disable the source volume by taking it offline.
C. Configure the destination volume for data access.
D. Verify the status of the source and destination volumes.
E. Perform a SnapMirror break operation.

Answer: C,D,E
