    A. 4
    B. 5
    C. 6
    D. 7

  • Question 152:

    When designing SRDF/A, what is the recommended configuration for the DSE pool?

    B. RAID 1 devices on dedicated disks
    C. RAID 5 devices spread out over few disks
    D. RAID 6 devices on dedicated disks

  • Question 153:

    You have used BCSD to model an SRDF/S solution. What information can be obtained from the model?

    A. Bandwidth requirement, RA utilization, and volume exceptions
    B. RA utilization, DA and cache utilization, and host service time
    C. Cache utilization, RA utilization, and potential problem volumes
    D. Bandwidth requirement, RA utilization, and network latency

  • Question 154:

    What describes the difference between Asynchronous and Synchronous Copy on First Write (COFW)?

    A. Asynchronous mode results in fewer disk operations during COFW.
    B. Asynchronous results in a shorter host response time as there is no COFW penalty compared to Synchronous.
    C. Asynchronous mode results in more disk operations during COFW.
    D. Asynchronous and Synchronous mode result in similar host response time as both suffer the COFW penalty.

  • Question 155:

    Refer to the Exhibit.

    The illustration shows the workload characteristics of a DMX which is due to be upgraded to a VMAX. Which conclusion can you draw?

    A. Front-end IOs outnumber the back-end IOs, because some IOs are satisfied in cache
    B. Front-end IOs outnumber the back-end IOs, because the devices involved are R2 targets
    C. Front-end and back-end IOs are unrelated to each other
    D. Front-end IOs outnumber the back-end IOs, because there were a lot of clone operations being performed

  • Question 156:

    What is a valid FAST VP policy that would be recommended by Tier Advisor?
