HP HP0-S35 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 11:

  A server is running out of disk space. It has a logical disk in external storage comprised of three, 72 GB disks in a Raid 5 configuration. No drive bays are available to add disks without adding another enclosure. You decide to replace the three 72 GB disks with three, 146 GB disks. you replace each disk on at a time allowing time for data to rebuild after each drive replacement. After creating a new logical drive in the unused space, you perform an array expansion and extension to combine the two logical disks, approximately how much space for data has been gained through these actions?

  A. 148 GB
  B. 210 GB
  C. 292 GB
  D. 438 GB
  A. 148 GB

  http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/14208_div/14208_div.HTML HP ProLiant BL460c Generation 8 (Gen8) Server Blade: Memory Population Rules and Guidelines:

  A minimum of one DIMM is required per processor.

  Install DIMMs only if the corresponding processor is installed. If only one processor is installed in a two processor system, only half of the DIMM slots are available.

  DIMM sizes can be mixed in channel. To maximize performance, it is recommended to balance the total memory capacity between all installed processors and to load the channels similarly whenever possible.

  RDIMMs operating at either 1.35V or 1.5V may be mixed in any order, but the system will power them at the higher voltage. LRDIMM, RDIMM and UDIMMs are all distinct memory technologies and cannot be mixed within a server. The

  majority of ProLiant Gen8 servers support RDIMM, UDIMM and LRDIMM.

  The Intel Xeon E5-2620 processor does not support DIMMs at 1.35V. DIMMs of different speeds may be mixed in any order; the server will select a common optimal speed.

  The maximum memory speed is a function of the memory type, memory configuration, and processor model. The maximum memory capacity is a function of the memory type and number of installed processors. HP memory from previous

  generation servers is not compatible with the BL460c Gen8 Server Blade. To realize the performance memory capabilities listed in this document, HP SmartMemory is required. For additional information, please see the HP SmartMemory

• Question 16:

  What is the definition of Recovery Point Objective (RPO)?

  A. point in the process code that needs to be recovered
  B. amount of time a recovery process must wait before it can be initiated
  C. amount of time a recovery process may take
  D. amount of data that can be unrecoverable
  D. amount of data that can be unrecoverable

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recovery_point_objective#RPO_and_RTO-_a_worked_example A "recovery point objective" or "RPO", is defined by business continuity planning. It is the maximum tolerable period in which data might be lost from an IT service due to a major incident

  

  The above figure is an example of how RPO and RTO might pan out in a practical situation. Tape is used for backup in this example. The tapes are sent offsite once per day at around the same time, but this timing is not fully guaranteed. The

  offsiting operation does happen to occur at roughly the same time of day in the chart above. The daily backup offsiting tasks in this example are as follows:

  A set of backups are made to tape, possibly via a disk staging area. The synchronisation point for each set of backups is late in the backup operation in this example as several large databases have to be backed up and all of them are

  required for a Synchronisation Point (this is typical of such systems).

  After that the tapes have to be ejected, collated, and catalogued as they are boxed. It is often the case that offsiting operations are batched across a wide spectrum of systems at a data centre; generally the backups for all services have to

  wait for the very last one to be created and boxed before they can be sent to the loading bay for transport.

  Pickups by offsite data repositories are expensive. Generally a daily pickup with a reasonably priced contract will have only an approximate time for pickup and will be predicated on the data centre being ready with the tapes when the van

  turns up- extra pickups will be generally too expensive to contemplate on a regular basis so a data centre must build contingency time into the preparation period before the pickup is due to occur.

  All of which must be done before the pickup- and all of which must be included in the RPO calculation because the synchronisation point being sent offsite depends on backups that were started very near to the start of these activities. So: a

  recovered service, after a restore from one of these daily backups, will be very likely to start up as at the end of the online day perhaps 13 or so hours or more, before the restored tapes were driven away from the Production data centre.

  Against this background, suppose that a Major Incident occurs just before an offsiting pick up (worst case) and as always the assumption is "total site loss, instantly"- so the prepared backups never leave the site. In this case the RPO is set to

  48 hours- only twice the normal offsiting cycle. As it happens, on this occasion pickups have been regular for a while and you might make the mistake of thinking that because two offsiting operations have occurred within the RPO period

  noted above, you have two sets of tapes you might be able to use and still be within the RPO. This is not the case- the earlier set of tapes will produce a recovered service as at a recovery point that is much older than it needs to be to meet

  the 48 hour RPO. In this example perhaps 12 or 13 hours over that time. In this example, consider the effect of the latest set of offsited tapes being rendered useless by a critically defective tape in the set (perhaps a 5-10% chance?)- as you

  can see by the example above, you can now NOT meet the RPO at all. Tape capacity is increasing all the time- potentially, fewer tapes mean that individual tape defects damage more backed up data.

  To complete the picture, the RTO is noted above too. In this case the service was recovered well before the RTO limit was hit. It is however interesting to contemplate the fact that in this example the RTO does NOT start just after the Major

  Incident. In this example, as often there is in reality, there is seemingly too much delay. A quick decision to go to invocation of the ITSC Plan is always the best decision; in principle... The rule in setting an RTO should be that the RTO is the

  longest period of time the business can do without the IT Service in question. On the back of this appropriately economic decisions must be taken at the design stage about how the IT Service is built and run. It must be allowed however that

  some time has to be spent in making the decision to invoke the ITSC Plan, this decision time is an unknown variable- remember too there are often quite large sums of money spent immediately the decision to invoke is taken- staff being

  called in for extended periods of 24 hour working cover and large fees charged by some recovery service providers at the outset of recovery. In the example, there is the almost inevitable fudge that the RTO is set to the maximum time the

  business can do without the service whilst knowing full well that there is very likely to be a period of decision making before it.

  Dynamic Processor Resiliency

  The flagship processor RAS feature for Integrity servers is HP's Dynamic Processor Resiliency (DPR). DPR is a set of error monitors that will flag a processor as degraded when it has experienced a certain number of correctable errors over a specific time period. These thresholds help identify processor modules which are likely to cause uncorrectable errors in the future that can panic the OS and bring the system or partition down. DPR effectively "idles' these suspect CPUs (deallocate), and marks those CPUs to not be used (deconfigured) on the next reboot cycle.
