    --resource-group anfdemo-rg \
    --location japaneast \
    --account-name anfjpe \
    --pool-name pool1 \
    --size 4 \
    --service-level Standard

Note)
Maximum size of a single capacity pool: 500 TiB
Maximum number of capacity pools per NetApp account: 25

GUI: Capacity Pool

8. Create volume

  • Volume name: nfsvol1
  • NFS 4.1
    Note) It take around 4 minutes
az netappfiles volume create \
    --resource-group anfdemo-rg \
    --location japaneast \
    --account-name anfjpe \
    --pool-name pool1 \
    --name nfsvol1 \
    --service-level Standard \
    --vnet anfjpe-vnet \
    --subnet anf-subnet \
    --usage-threshold 1024 \
    --file-path nfsvol1 \
    --allowed-clients 0.0.0.0/0 \
    --rule-index 1 \
    --protocol-types NFSv4.1

Note)
Maximum size of a single volume: 100 TiB
Maximum number of volumes per capacity pool: 500

GUI: Volume GUI: Set NFS 4.1

9. Login on SUSE via Bastion

  • Login as root sudo su - or sudo -i
  • Verify login as root whoami

10. Mount ANF as NFS 4.1

  • Mount path: /mnt/nfsvol1/
  • Follow Mount Instruction
    Note) Not necesssry to install NFS utilities

Verification

  • df -h
  • mount

Change to ANF mounted directory and create test file

  • cd nfsvol1
  • echo "aaaaa" > test.txt

11. Install fio

zypper install fio

12. Run fio command to measure realtime throughput

fio -rw=randwrite -bs=8k -size=2000m -numjobs=40 -runtime=180 -direct=1 -invalidate=1 -ioengine=libaio -iodepth=32 -iodepth_batch=32 -group_reporting -name=FioDiskThroughputTest

13. Change size of volume to 2TiB

  • Expected value: Thougthput to be changed to 32Mbps from 16Mbps
  • See realtime change of throughput
az netappfiles volume update -g anfdemo-rg \
   --account-name anfjpe --pool-name pool1 \
   --name nfsvol1 --service-level Standard \
    --usage-threshold 2048

14. One-time Snapshot and volume-based restration

  • Create a test file named test.txt under /mnt/nfsvol1/ echo "this is the test" > test.txt
  • Create one-time snapshot: snapshot01
  • Create clone volume from the snapshot
  • Revert
  • Create one-time snapshot: snapshot01 Note) Max number of snapshot per volume is 255
az netappfiles snapshot create -g anfdemo-rg \
    --account-name anfjpe \
    --pool-name pool1 \
    --volume-name nfsvol1 \
    -l japaneast \
    --name snapshot01

15. Snapshot: file-based restoration

  • cd /mnt/nfsvol1/
  • ls -la
  • cd .snapshot
  • ls -la
  • cd snapshot01
  • Restore test.txt as test2.txt: cp test.txt ../../test2.txt
  • Verify: cd ../../ and cat test2.txt

16. Snapshot policy

Note) Timezone is UTC. Japan Standard time is UTC +9

az netappfiles snapshot policy create -g anfdemo-rg \
    --account-name anfjpe \
    --snapshot-policy-name hourly-pol01 \
    -l japaneast \
    --hourly-snapshots 8 \
    --hourly-minute 59 \
    --enabled true

17. Change QoS type to Manual from Auto

az netappfiles pool update -g anfdemo-rg \
    --account-name anfjpe --name pool1 \
    --qos-type Manual

And change throughput manually to 50Mbps

az netappfiles volume update -g anfdemo-rg \
    --account-name anfjpe --pool-name pool1 \
    --name nfsvol1 --service-level standard \
    --throughput-mibps 50

18. Extend pool size to increase throughput further

Extend pool size to 6 TiB

az netappfiles pool update -g anfdemo-rg \
    --account-name anfjpe \
    --name pool1 \
    --size 6

And change throughput manually to 80Mbps

az netappfiles volume update -g anfdemo-rg \
    --account-name anfjpe --pool-name pool1 \
    --name nfsvol1 --service-level standard \
    --throughput-mibps 80

19. Change Service Level to increase throughput furthermore

  • Create 4TiB one more pool pool2 as Premium Service Level
  • Move the current volumes to pool2
  • Remove pool1
az netappfiles pool create \
    --resource-group anfdemo-rg \
    --location japaneast \
    --account-name anfjpe \
    --pool-name pool2 \
    --size 4 \
    --qos-type Manual \
    --service-level Premium

And after moving all volumes to pool2, delete pool1
az netappfiles pool delete -g anfdemo-rg -a anfjpe -n pool1

21. Cross Region Replication

CRR process to be done in the GUI

git clone https://github.com/maysay1999/anfdemo02.git AnfHandson

  • chmod 711 japanwest-create.sh Execute japanwest-create.sh
  • Briefing on Cross Region Replicaiton (DR)
  • Create a new VNet, anfjpw-vnet
  • Address space is 172.21.0.0/16
  • Location: Japan West (pair region).
  • Create a new subnet, vm-sub. 172.21.0.0/24
  • Create a new subnet, anf-sub. 172.21.1.0/26
  • ANF netapp account: anfjpw (location: Japan West)
  • Capacity pool name: pooldr (4TiB, Standard)
  • Replication volume name: voldr (througput 16Mbps)
  • Replication frequency: once a day
