    C. Online push only
    D. Offline push only

  • Question 12:

    You are proposing a new VMAX array with FAST VP. The customer reports their application needs a small amount of EFD capacity and asks whether 200 GB EFDs or 400 GB EFDs would provide better overall performance. Which drive size do you recommend and why?

    A. 400 GB EFDs. They support higher IOPS than 200 GB EFDs.
    B. 200 GB EFDs. They support higher I/O density than 400 GB EFDs.
    C. 400 GB EFDs. They support higher I/O density than 200 GB EFDs.
    D. 200 GB EFDs. They support higher IOPS than 400 GB EFDs.

  • Question 13:

    Which host-based performance tool should be used to gather data for Microsoft Windows systems?

    A. PERFMON
    B. SAR
    C. IOSTAT
    D. NAR

    D. Hot push using TimeFinder/Snap replica devices

  • Question 15:

    A customer plans to configure their new Symmetrix VMAX 20K. They want your advice on how to configure a storage pool. This new storage pool will handle random write I/O What should be your advice about RAID types as they relate to performance?

    A. Use RAID 1 because RAID 5 and RAID 6 will have a higher write penalty.
    B. Use RAID 5 because it can be more efficient for random writes than RAID 1.
    C. Use RAID 6 because both RAID 1 and RAID 5 have a higher write penalty.
    D. RAID type does not matter since everything in the VMAX goes through cache.

  • Question 16:

    A colleague implemented cascaded SRDF for a VMAX technology refresh and site relocation activity. The colleague reports they shutdown the hosts at production Site A and copied all data to the bunker Site B VMAX. But they are unable to

    enable SRDF/S between Site B and remote Site C.

    What should you advise them?

    A. SRDF/S is not supported on the second leg of a cascaded SRDF implementation.
    B. Enable SRDF/A on the first leg and then enable SRDF/S on the second leg.
    C. Suspend SRDF/S on the first leg and then enable SRDF/S on the second leg.
    D. The Site B devices must be converted to use concurrent SRDF.

  • Question 17:

    Which operations are allowed by Open Replicator/DM?

    A. All functions except offline pull
    B. All functions except online push

    C. Use RAID 6 because both RAID 1 and RAID 5 have a higher overhead penalty.
    D. RAID type does not matter since everything in the VMAX goes through cache.

  • Question 19:

    Refer to the exhibit.

    What is a characteristic of the proposed configuration recommended by TierAdvisor?

    A. It will consume 6% less storage than the current configuration
    B. It will have 49% better response time than the current configuration
    C. It will cost 2% less than the current configuration
    D. It is unsuitable for use with FAST because the tier allocations add up to 100%

  • Question 20:

    What is the maximum number of wavelengths that can be multiplexed on a single optical fiber over DWDM?

    A. 160
    B. 16
