• A. True
• B. False
• C. NA
• D. NA

Answer: (B)

LUN setup can create and map a LUN to an igroup in one step, and it can create the igroup on the fly if needed. In Data ONTAP 7-Mode, a LUN is presented to initiators through an igroup, but you don’t have to pre-create that igroup before running lun setup. You can specify a new igroup name during the process and the system will create it and map the LUN to it, or you can map to an existing igroup. This means you’re not required to have the igroup already created beforehand.
