ONTAP 8.3.2 Defaults - Storage Failover

Sometimes it’s quite useful to know what the default settings are, and so - in what might be the start of a new series of posts - I thought I’d expose in a table form what the defaults are, starting with Storage Failover defaults.

All the information presented in the table below can be got from::>

man storage failover modify
