Introduction to Simulate ONTAP 8.0 1
About this chapter This chapter provides a brief introduction about Simulate ONTAP™ 8.0 and
prerequisites for installing Simulate ONTAP 8.0 on a Windows® and Mac®
system.

Topics in this The following topics are discussed in this chapter:

chapter ◆ “Overview” on page 1
◆ “Hardware requirements” on page 2
◆ “In an Intel based laptop or desktop the VT support is turned off by default.
You must enable the VT in the system BIOS to use Simulate ONTAP 8.0.”
on page 2
◆ “About Simulate ONTAP 8.0 binaries” on page 4
◆ “Downloading Simulate ONTAP binaries” on page 5

Overview Simulate ONTAP 8.0 is a virtual simulator of the Data ONTAP® 8.0 software.
You can run the virtual simulator on a Windows or Mac system. Simulate
ONTAP 8.0 is a VMware virtual machine that runs in a hypervisor.

You need to install one of the following VMware applications on the host system
to use the Simulate ONTAP 8.0:
◆ VMware® Server 2.01 or later
◆ VMware® Workstation 6.5 or 7.0
◆ VMware® Player 2.5.3
◆ VMware Fusion™ 2.03 or later

You can configure Simulate ONTAP 8.0 as a 7-Mode system or cluster-Mode

system.

Simulate ONTAP 8.0 enables you to test many of the Data ONTAP 7-Mode and
Cluster- Mode features without buying any new hardware or disturbing your
production environment. You can also provide the Simulate ONTAP simulator to
your storage administrators to have hands-on experience.

This document provides details about installing all VMware software

applications supported to run Simulate ONTAP, provides details about installing,
starting, and configuring the Simulate ONTAP 8.0 software.

Chapter 1: Introduction to Simulate ONTAP 8.0 1

Installation prerequisites for a Windows system

Hardware The following are the hardware prerequisites for a Windows system:
requirements ◆ Dual core 64-bit Intel® or AMD architecture laptop or desktop
◆ 2 GB RAM for one instance of simulator
◆ 3 GB RAM for two instances of simulator (4 GB recommended)
◆ 20 GB free disk space per instance of simulator
◆ VT support for Intel® based systems

Hardware In an Intel based laptop or desktop the VT support is turned off by default. You
configuration must enable the VT in the system BIOS to use Simulate ONTAP 8.0.

To enable VT in the system BIOS, complete the following steps:

1. Access the system BIOS while booting your laptop or desktop.

Note
The feature might be named as VT, Vanderpool Technology, Virtualization
Technology, VMX, or Virtual Machine Extensions. You might find this setting
under a Security/CPU screen in the BIOS.

2. In the BIOS, check the VT setting is either on or off at power on. Enable the
VT if it is not already enabled in the system BIOS.

3. Save the changes to the BIOS settings.

4. Turn off power to the system.

5. Turn on the system again; the changes made in the BIOS will take effect.

Note
If you simply reboot the system without turning it off, VT will not be enabled.

Software The following are the software prerequisites for a Windows system:
requirements ◆ Microsoft Windows® XP
◆ VMware Server or VMware Workstation or VMware Player

2 Installation prerequisites for a Windows system

 For Mac system prerequisites, see the “Installation prerequisites for a Mac
system” on page 36

Features not The following are the limitations and features not supported on Simulate ONTAP
supported and 8.0:
limitations ◆ High availability (CFO/SFO)
◆ NVRAM (nonvolatile RAM) is simulated and is not persistent. Data loss
may occur after power cycles. You should shut down the simulator properly
in order to avoid the data loss
◆ RLM (Remote LAN Module)
◆ Multipathing is not supported as multiple physical interfaces are not
available in the Simulate ONTAP hardware
◆ Fibre channel and SAN
◆ Simulate ONTAP 8.0 simulates Data ONTAP only. It does not simulate
CFE, BIOS, shelf FW and so on
◆ Simulate ONTAP 8 is not well suited to any tests or applications requiring
high performance or heavy I/O
◆ You can have a maximum of four simulated disk shelves with 14 disk drives
per shelf, for a total of 56 drives per simulator
◆ You can only create a maximum 1 GB 64-bit aggregate per simulated disk
drive
◆ If you are running multiple instances of Simulate ONTAP 8.0 on your
system, you must boot up the simulators one after another

a Mac system. Save it to the download

folder.

7 Extract the zip file at C:\Virtual Machines folder.

Note
A Mac system automatically detects the zip file and unzips it.

Note
You should not copy the VMware files of an already booted Simulate ONTAP
8.0 simulator to create a second instance of simulator. If you want to run multiple
instances of Simulate ONTAP 8.0, you should first create copy of the binary
before setting up simulator. If simulator is already setup, then you should
download a new copy from the NOW site.

Configuring network adapters on VMware Workstation

There two virtual network configurations that you can use on your laptop or
desktop.
◆ Host-Only and Custom - all virtual interfaces used by the Simulate ONTAP
8.0 are set to host-only and custom.
◆ Bridged and Custom - Virtual network vmnet0 is set to bridged and all other
interfaces used by Simulate ONTAP 8.0 are set to host-only and custom.

If the virtual network interface vmnet0 is set as Bridged, then all volumes created
and mounted using Data ONTAP will be available using the physical Ethernet
port of your laptop. This works only if the data vif IP address and subnet are
static (Cluster-Mode) and 7-Mode supports DHCP.

To configure the network adapters, complete the following steps:

Step Action

1 Click Start> All Programs > VMware > Virtual Network Editor.

2 In the Virtual Network Editor window, select the virtual network

interface as per your requirement.

3 Click OK.

Joining a cluster To set up a 2- node cluster, you need to create a new Simulate ONTAP 8.0 node.

Note
To create a new Simulate ONTAP 8.0 node, follow “Data ONTAP Cluster-Mode
setup” steps.

To join nodes, complete the following steps:

Step Action

1 Simulator-sim2::> cluster join <first-sim-cluster-ip1> -

ipaddr1 <second-sim-cluster-ip1> -netmask <cluster-
subnet-mask> -ipaddr2 <second-sim-cluster-ip2>

Adding NFS license To add the NFS license, complete the following step:

Step Action

1 Simulator-sim3::> license add <NFS License>

(system license add)

Creating an To create an aggregate, complete the following step:
