A
(TR-4080: ONTAP 9.4 introduced its first support of an NVMe over Fabrics (NVMe-oF) protocol— NVMe over Fibre Channel (NVMe/FC).)
correction on my own post…. “ONTAP 9.5 introduces ANA as part of the NVMe/FC target” (TR-4684)
C is correct.
TR-4684 p.24 (“Enable N_Port ID virtualization (NPIV)on all fabric switches.”)
