SNIA SNIA SCSA S10-201 Questions & Answers

• Question 21:

  A production cluster is attached to redundant disk fabrics and a tape fabric. Each fabric is contained within a single switch. Each cluster member has access to twelve (12) TB of RAID 5 production storage and twelve (12) TB of RAID 0 local replica accessed through eight (8) HBAs single initiator zoned to sixteen

  (16)

  storage ports on one storage subsystem. The tape fabric includes one (1) connection to each server and direct connections to ten (10) LTO II (35MB/s) tape drives. The standby cluster member performs multithreaded backups using the local replica. All HBAs and ports are 2Gb/s. If the recovery time is equal to backup time, where is the bottleneck?

  A.

  tape HBA

  B.

  disk HBAs

  C.

  tape drives

  D.

  subsystem contention

  Correct Answer: A

  A. HBA will run at 533MHz.

  B. HBA will run at 266MHz.

  C. HBA will run at 133MHz.

  D. HBA will run at 100MHz.

  Correct Answer: D

• Question 25:

  A customer with sixteen nonclustered SAN attached hosts has a storage subsystem with thirtytwo disk drives. The customer wishes to protect their data using RAID 1. Each server has a need to see three separate volumes for their final configuration. What must be configured on the storage subsystem to meet their storage allocation needs?

  A. multiple scsi targets to each mirror volume

  B. single logical unit and use hostbased LVM

  C. separate virtual paths for each mirror volume

  D. separate logical units for each server volume

  Correct Answer: D

• Question 26:

  A company has implemented a stretch cluster, active/passive configuration, between two sites that are 100km apart in conjunction with synchronous data replication.

  B. stop services on local host, failover application, failover cluster alias

  C. stop services on local host, failover storage, failover cluster alias

  D. stop services on local host, failover cluster alias, failover application

  Correct Answer: B
