ONTAP S3 limitations

The SVM hosting the S3 Object store does not support some standard ONTAP features including.

Unsupported ONTAP functionality:

  • Cloud Volumes ONTAP
  • FlexCache volumes
  • MetroCluster
  • NDMP
  • SnapMirror Cloud
  • SMTape
  • Volume clone of the Flexgroup containing ONTAP S3 buckets
    Note
    ONTAP 9.10.1 allows SnapMirror to be used to provide disaster recovery of your S3 bucket but we will not be covering that in this guide.

Unsupported object storage functionality:

  • Object versioning
  • Erasure coding
