Question 1

A customer is looking for a centralized file-sharing solution that can provide print services in addition to 15TB of storage.

Which solution component should you recommend?



Answer : B

For a customer seeking a centralized file-sharing solution that also provides print services and 15TB of storage, the ideal recommendation is NAS (Network Attached Storage).

NAS systems are specifically designed for file sharing and often come with integrated print server capabilities. They provide centralized storage that can be accessed by multiple clients over a network, making them suitable for environments requiring both file sharing and print services. NAS devices are scalable, making it easy to add additional storage capacity as needed, and they support a variety of file-sharing protocols, ensuring compatibility with different client operating systems.

Question 2

A customer with several HPE 3PAR StoreServ arrays has reported latencies with newly updated applications.

You have proposed changes to the AO configuration and need to provide high-resolution reports on how the change has affected the latencies.

What should you propose on delivering the service time and I/O workload information daily for you and the customer?



Answer : B

The HPE 3PAR SSMC (StoreServ Management Console) System Reporter is the tool that should be used to generate and schedule high-resolution performance reports, including service time and I/O workload information. By configuring System Reporter to send daily email reports, both you and the customer can monitor the impact of changes made to the Adaptive Optimization (AO) configuration. This ensures that any latency issues or performance improvements are documented and can be analyzed regularly.

Question 3

You are asked to review an installation plan for a new Primera storage array. The array will go into an existing environment that has been in production for over 4 years. It includes:

C7000s with Gen8 blades

8Gb Brocade switches

a 3PAR 7400

an MSA that is used as a backup target

What should you use to find appropriate installation and planning guides?



Answer : D

When reviewing an installation plan for a new Primera storage array in an existing environment, the best resource to find appropriate installation and planning guides is SPOCK (Option D). SPOCK (Single Point of Connectivity Knowledge) provides detailed interoperability and configuration guides, ensuring that all components in the existing infrastructure (such as C7000s, Brocade switches, and 3PAR 7400) are compatible with the new Primera array.

SPOCK is an essential tool for ensuring that the installation process is seamless and that the environment will support the new storage solution without any compatibility issues.

Question 4

When using a HPE 3 PAR Storeserv array to enable a user to apply array--based data services to specific application and VM's. What is the benefit of implementing VM-level gradually of Volts?



Answer : B

NPIV (N_Port ID Virtualization) is the feature that needs to be enabled on B-series FC switches to allow individual virtual servers to have independent storage access. NPIV allows multiple virtual machines to share a single physical Fibre Channel port while maintaining separate identities (N_Port IDs), enabling each virtual machine to be seen as a separate entity on the SAN. This is crucial in a virtualized environment where individual virtual servers need direct storage access.

Question 5

A customer wants to expand his cascaded B-series based SAN but is concerned about latencies within the SAN backend. You recommend changing the topology to a full mesh.

Which switch feature will ensure that the latencies in the backend are at the lowest possible level?



Answer : C

Fabric Shortest Path First (FSPF) is a routing protocol used in SANs to ensure the shortest and most efficient path for data within the network. By using FSPF, the latency in a SAN can be minimized by automatically selecting the best path for data traffic. This is particularly important in a full mesh topology, where multiple paths are available between switches, as it optimizes traffic flow and reduces the chances of bottlenecks.

Question 6

Which file protocols are commonly used in HPE StoreOnce environments? (Choose two.)



Answer : A, E

In HPE StoreOnce environments, the two most commonly used file protocols are CIFS (Common Internet File System) and NFS (Network File System).

CIFS: This protocol is widely used in Windows environments for file sharing. It enables users and applications to access files on remote servers as if they were local, making it ideal for integration with Windows-based systems.

NFS: This protocol is commonly used in Unix and Linux environments for file sharing. It allows a user on a client computer to access files over a network much like local storage is accessed.

These protocols are integral to HPE StoreOnce's capability to provide flexible and efficient file-based backup and recovery solutions across different operating environments.
