Which two virtualization products use split-path architecture? (Choose two.)

A.

IBM SVC

B.

HP SVSP

C.

EMC Invista

D.

NetApp V-Series

A customer must be absolutely certain that there will be no performance impact of multiView snapshots on a key financial database. How can multiView and multiCopy be used together to satisfy the customer's requirement?

A.

multiView can be used to take a PiT copy. Additional PiTs can then be taken off the first PiT for test and development.

B.

multiCopy can be used to copy the database to another storage array. multiView can then be used to take low capacity PiTs of the copy for test and development.

C.

multiCopy will create a steady stream of data to a copy area. multiView can then be used to take PiTs whenever they are required for test and development.

D.

MultiView can be set to only read the PiT data when the volume is not in use. Requests for PiTs for test and development can therefore be queued.

Which statement describes tiered storage?

A.

An infrastructure designed to lower the overall cost of storage by placing volumes on "fit for purpose" storage based on defined cost, availability, and performance requirements.

B.

An infrastructure designed to place data on the storage devices that have the lowest price per megabyte ratio.

C.

An infrastructure designed to place data on different storage devices to ensure a heterogeneous model.

D.

An infrastructure designed to place data on different storage devices to ensure a homogeneous model.

How can SVM's centralized management provide better performance?

A.

by allocating capacity across RAID arrays

B.

by striping volumes across RAID arrays

C.

by mirroring volumes across RAID arrays

D.

by provisioning additional servers

When considering a snapshot strategy, the differences between copy-on-write (COW) and redirect-on-write (ROW) are very distinct. What are two differences? (Choose two.)

A.

ROW is RAID controller-based and works on all industry-standard arrays.

B.

A heavily loaded array using COW will impact performance across all attached servers.

C.

ROW writes the new data to the snapshot directly, eliminating one or more write processes.

D.

COW provides consistency of data across different platforms.

A long time customer just called requesting your help justifying SVM as they virtualize their data center using VMware. What are three reasons SVM's storage services would benefit this customer? (Choose three.)

A.

Rapid application recovery is easier with SVM's snapshot capabilities.

B.

SVM will make provisioning easy and fast.

C.

Disaster recovery will be less expensive than using traditional methods.

D.

SVM will eliminate the need for tape.

E.

SVM will automatically size storage to fit the data.

A customer runs their batch jobs each evening immediately after completing their tape backup of their applications as a recovery point. Recently their tape backup has been failing, giving them no recovery point and putting their business at risk in the event of a problem with the batch jobs that may arise during the day. How can MultiView be used to give them a consistent recovery point in the event of a failed backup?

A.

multiView will migrate the data online to another disk that can be used as a backup in the event of tape failure.

B.

multiView will provide the means to consolidate the last evening backup with the current backup in the event of a tape failure.multiView will provide the means to consolidate the last evening? backup with the current backup in the event of a tape failure.

C.

multiView takes PiT copies of database applications at user defined times. In the event of a tape failure, the backup can be redone off the same PiT image.

D.

multiView will provide a full physical copy of the applications. In the event of a tape failure, the backup can be redone from the full physical copy.

Which two economic metrics can be used to justify thin provisioning? (Choose two.)

A.

Save money wasted from overbuying.

B.

Cascade older assets to new uses.

C.

Reclaim capacity trapped in allocation.

D.

Increase productivity from improved performance.

A customer is interested in how seamless data migration would fit into their data-life-cycle management strategy. Which two attributes describe data-life-cycle management? (Choose two.)

A.

The promotion and demotion of volumes among tiers based upon production cycles.

B.

The creation of pools built upon the speed and capacity of disks.

C.

The mobility of volumes to best match the QoS of applications.

D.

The migration of data off one storage platform to another.

Your SVM customer calls with questions about performance tuning in their VMware environment. One of their storage arrays is not running fast enough to support the application for several days each month. What would you recommend?

A.

Buy a faster storage array and move the data with multiView.

B.

Use multiCopy to copy the data to a different storage tier, stop the application and remount the data to the copy.

C.

Back up the data off a snapshot and restore it to a faster array.

D.

Use multiMigrate to move the application's data to a higher performing storage tier for the busy days.
