EMC EMC Specialist E20-018 Questions & Answers

  • Question 261:

    You are meeting with the CIO to discuss your VDC design. They question the amount of capital that is being invested in iSCSI adapters. They state that, because of the number of adapters required, it is more costeffective to purchase 10 Gigabit Ethernet NICs and use the integrated hypervisor software stack.

    What effect will this have on the design?

    A. Larger form-factor hypervisors will be required

    B. Fewer hypervisors will be required

    C. More hypervisors will be required

    D. Smaller form-factor hypervisors will be required

  • Question 262:

    An organization has implemented a VDI solution. A user logs in to their virtual desktop for the first time and customizes their environment prior to logging off for the day. When they return to work the following day, all of their customizations are gone.

    Which type of virtual desktops were implemented by the organization?

    A. Stateless

    B. Stateful

    C. Thin

    D. Remote

  • Question 263:

    You are designing a new VDC and are planning to use iSCSI for storage connectivity from the hypervisors. The network infrastructure is 10 Gigabit Ethernet, and the storage system can support multiple NICs.

    Your networking design on the storage system must provide the highest level of performance, security, and fault tolerance.

    What should you recommend?

    A. Bond the NICs together and connect them to different aggregation layer switches.Configure a separate VLAN for the iSCSI traffic.

    B. Leave the NICs independent and connect them to different aggregation layer switches. Configure a separate VLAN for iSCSI traffic on each NIC.

    C. Bond the NICs together and connect them to different access layer switches. Configure a separate VLAN for the iSCSI traffic.

    D. Leave the NICs independent and connect them to different access layer switches. Configure a separate VLAN for iSCSI traffic on each NIC.

  • Question 264:

    A company has finished the design for their VDC. They realize that they should also include a few design considerations to prepare them for cloud.

    What is a key technical reason for the company to build a cloud-based service?

    A. Scale resources up and down to meet needs

    B. Take advantage of multi-tenancy to improve utilization

    C. Consolidate systems to increase density

    D. Leverage auto-healing to reduce down-time

  • Question 265:

    When surveying an existing application environment to free up resources, which type of systems should be initially identified?

    A. Systems that can be combined, replaced, or obsoleted

    B. Systems whose data can be comingled

    C. Systems that have minimal GRC or security requirements

    D. Systems that can be migrated easily to a virtual environment

  • Question 266:

    From which resource are virtually provisioned LUNs allocated?

    A. Thin pool

    B. Physical pool

    C. Virtual pool

    D. Unallocated pool

  • Question 267:

    Which is primary dimension to consider when performing a risk management?

    A. Quality of exposures

    B. Owner of the asset

    C. Value of the asset

    D. Location of the asset

  • Question 268:

    An organization supporting 10,000 desktop PCs is considering implementing VDI. What is a benefit of moving forward with a VDI plan?

    A. Control and containment of IP

    B. Reduced impact on network infrastructure

    C. No change in desktop management methods and tools

    D. Immediate cost savings

  • Question 269:

    As part of a VDC deployment, you are examining the existing storage configurations. On one storage system, you discover over fifty storage pools. The pools contain a single type of drive (SSD, SAS or NL SAS), but many of them contain only a few drives and share the same RAID configuration. The Storage Administrator admits that they have been creating separate pools for each application because they did not want the applications contending for the disks.

    As part of the design, you propose to consolidate the existing pools into larger pools of mixed drive types and RAID configurations.

    What technology will you need to implement to utilize the new pool design?

    A. Virtual Provisioning

    B. Caching Tier

    C. Storage Virtualization

    D. Storage Tiering

  • Question 270:

    Which technology provides fault tolerance and load balancing for FCoE traffic?

    A. Multipathing Software

    B. NIC Teaming

    C. HBA Teaming

    D. Fibre Channel Initiator
