A hybrid cloud administrator is troubleshooting a connectivity issue where an on-premises host can ping the cloud VM's public IP but cannot connect to a specific application port. What is the MOST likely cause?

A firewall or security group is blocking the port

A hybrid cloud environment uses Cloud Volumes ONTAP (CVO) in AWS. An on-premises application cannot connect to the CVO instance's iSCSI target. The administrator has verified that the security group and NACL allow iSCSI traffic (TCP 3260) from the on-premises CIDR. The CVO instance's iSCSI service is running. What should the administrator check NEXT?

The CVO instance's `ifstat` output for dropped packets.

The on-premises firewall's outbound rules for iSCSI.

The on-premises initiator's iSCSI configuration, including the target IQN and CHAP credentials.

The CVO instance's `ems` log for iSCSI-related events.

A company runs a hybrid cloud with ONTAP on-premises and a Cloud Volumes ONTAP (CVO) instance in AWS. Users report that a database application is experiencing high latency when writing to a volume on the CVO instance. The administrator has checked the CVO instance's CPU and network metrics and found them to be normal. The database is also replicating to an on-premises ONTAP cluster via SnapMirror. What should the administrator investigate NEXT to identify the bottleneck?

The SnapMirror relationship's transfer schedule.

The on-premises ONTAP cluster's CPU utilization.

The database application's connection pool settings.

The CVO instance's disk latency metrics and the AWS EBS volume type.

A hybrid cloud administrator is troubleshooting a failed data replication job. According to a systematic troubleshooting methodology, what is the FIRST step the administrator should take?

Implement a workaround to restore service quickly

Escalate the issue to NetApp support

A company has a hybrid cloud setup with ONTAP on-premises and a Cloud Volumes ONTAP (CVO) instance in Google Cloud. After a network team changes the on-premises firewall rules, the VPN tunnel between the sites goes down. The administrator can ping the CVO instance's internal IP from the on-premises network, but cannot establish an iSCSI session. What is the MOST likely cause?

The VPN tunnel is still down, preventing all traffic.

The CVO instance's iSCSI service is stopped.

The firewall is blocking TCP port 3260 for iSCSI traffic.

The on-premises initiator's CHAP credentials are incorrect.
