Control: 4 FSx for NetApp ONTAP file systems should be configured for Multi-AZ deployment
Description
This control checks whether an Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP file system is configured to use a multiple Availability Zones (Multi-AZ) deployment type. The control fails if the file system isn't configured to use a Multi-AZ deployment type. You can optionally specify a list of deployment types to include in the evaluation.
Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP supports several deployment types for file systems: Single-AZ 1, Single-AZ 2, Multi-AZ 1, and Multi-AZ 2. The deployment types offer different levels of availability and durability. We recommend using a Multi-AZ deployment type for most production workloads due to the high availability and durability model that Multi-AZ deployment types provide. Multi-AZ file systems support all the availability and durability features of Single-AZ file systems. In addition, they're designed to provide continuous availability to data even when an Availability Zone (AZ) is unavailable.
Remediation
You can't change the deployment type for an existing Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP file system. However, you can back up the data, and then restore it on a new file system that uses a Multi-AZ deployment type.
