NetApp NS0-173 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 41:

  A customer is designing a FlexPod Datacenter with Cisco UCS C-Series servers. They intend to manage the solution with Cisco UCS Manager. They want to cable the servers to the Cisco UCS Fabric Interconnects.

  In this scenario, which three configurations are supported? (Choose three.)

  A. Cluster mode
  B. Direct Connect mode
  C. SingleConnect mode
  D. DualWire Management mode
  E. Multipath mode
  B. Direct Connect mode
  C. SingleConnect mode
  D. DualWire Management mode

  ---

  Dual-wire Management (Shared LOM): Shared LAN on Motherboard (LOM) ports on the rack server are used exclusively for carrying management traffic. A separate cable connected to one of the ports on the PCIe card carries the data traffic. Using two separate cables for managing data traffic and management traffic is also referred to as dual-wire management. SingleConnect (Sideband): Using Network Controller Sideband Interface (NC-SI), the Cisco VIC card connects one cable that can carry both data traffic and management traffic. This feature is referred to as SingleConnect. Direct Connect Mode: Cisco UCS Manager supports an option to connect the Cisco UCS C-Series Rack-Mount Server directly to the FIs. This option enables Cisco UCS Manager to manage the Cisco UCS C-Series Rack-Mount Servers using a single cable for both management traffic and data traffic. The Cisco UCS VIC connects to the FI of the system. This connection uses a single connection from each VIC to each FI.

• Question 45:

  You are designing a FlexPod solution that requires 32 ports running at 40 Gbps. To satisfy this requirement, which Cisco Fabric Interconnect should you deploy?

  A. 6332-16UP
  B. 6332
  C. 6248UP
  D. 6296UP
  B. 6332

  ---

  FI 6332 is a one-rack-unit (1RU) 40 Gigabit Ethernet, and FCoE switch offering up to 2.56 Tbps throughput and up to 32 ports. The switch has 32 40Gbps fixed Ethernet. Reference: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/unified_computing/ucs/UCS_CVDs/flexpod_esxi60u2_fc_design.html

• Question 47:

  Which two Unified Computing System capabilities are required to achieve stateless computing? (Choose two.)

  A. templates
  B. blade servers
  C. service profiles
  D. boot from SAN
  B. blade servers
  C. service profiles

  ---

  Cisco introduced the idea of stateless computing with its blade server design.

  A Cisco UCS instance allows you to quickly align computing resources in the data center with rapidly changing business requirements. This built-in flexibility is determined by whether you choose to fully implement the stateless computing

  feature.

  Pools of servers and other system resources can be applied as necessary to respond to workload fluctuations, support new applications, scale existing software and business services, and accommodate both scheduled and unscheduled

  downtime. Server identity can be abstracted into a mobile service profile that can be moved from server to server with minimal downtime and no need for additional network configuration.

• Question 48:

  You are configuring high availability within the network layer of your FlexPod configuration.

  In this scenario, what are two Cisco best practices for designing vPC on your Cisco 9000 Series switches? (Choose two.)

  A. Peer keep-alive connectivity between the switches should be established.
  B. A minimum of four 10GB Ethernet connections are required for vPC.
  C. The vPC auto-recovery feature should be enabled.
  D. Port channels should be configured for LACP passive mode.
  A. Peer keep-alive connectivity between the switches should be established.
  B. A minimum of four 10GB Ethernet connections are required for vPC.

  ---

  vPC also relies on the periodic keepalive messages to determine when one of the connected devices on the peer link fails. vPC peer link ?The link used to synchronize states between the vPC peer devices. Both ends must be on 10-Gigabit Ethernet or 40-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
