What is a characteristic of a single-node cluster?
A.
It only hosts a single SVM.
B.
It does not have a node management LIF.
C.
It does not have any cluster interconnect LIFs.
D.
It is unsupported in a production environment.
Explanation:
Incorrect Answers:
A, B: The following table lists the recommended number of SVMs in a cluster based on the number of LIFs
configured:
D: A single node cluster is a special implementation of a cluster running on a standalone node. You can deploy
a single node cluster if your workload only requires a single node, but does not need nondisruptive operations.https://library.netapp.com/ecmdocs/ECMP1368701/html/GUID-425E17E6-B342-4AFC-A855-

Answer C. is not always correct. If SnapMirror or SnapVault is used then a cluster interconnect lif should be present for cluster peering.

Intercluster LIFs can be assigned to ports that have the role of data, which are the same ports used for CIFS or NFS access, or intercluster LIFs can be assigned to dedicated ports that have the role of intercluster. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages.

Reply to Renek’s comment above:
A cluster interconnect (a connection between nodes in a cluster) is different to an inter-cluster connection (a connection between two clusters).
CL1-01, CL1-02, CL1-03 and CL1-04 would be connected with a cluster interconnect.
CL1-01 (etc.) may be connected to CL2-01 (etc.) using intercluster LIFs to form an inter-cluster connection.
