Question 1 of 53

When planning rack layout, why should base enclosures be grouped together?

A.

Power distribution requirements

B.

Rack weight balance

C.

Ease of cable management

D.

Hot aisle requirement

Correct Answer: B

When planning the layout of a rack, base enclosures should be grouped together primarily to ensure proper weight distribution. By placing heavier base enclosures at the bottom or together, the stability of the rack is maintained, preventing it from becoming top-heavy and reducing the risk of tipping over. Proper weight balance is crucial for the safety and structural integrity of the rack.

Question 2 of 53

What does the remote replication Failover operation do?

A.

Fully synchronizes the source and destination data states and reverses the replication direction

B.

Fully synchronizes the source and destination data states and stops the current replication session

C.

Promotes the destination system to production with its replica data consistent to the last successful RPO synchronization state

D.

Promotes the destination system to production and resets the RPO synchronization cycle in the protection policy

Correct Answer: C

The remote replication Failover operation promotes the destination system to production and ensures that it uses its replica data, which is consistent with the last successful Recovery Point Objective (RPO) synchronization state. This means that the destination system will assume the role of production with data that is in a known consistent state from the last synchronization. This process is crucial during an unplanned event, such as a system failure, to maintain data availability and consistency.

Question 3 of 53

What describes the Import External Storage feature?

A.

An external plugin feature for hosts to tune application workload IO on PowerStore NVMe based storage

B.

A native network configuration feature of PowerStore that configures external Ethernet switching for PowerStore installation

C.

A feature external to PowerStore that orchestrates vMotion movement of virtual machines onto PowerStore X systems

D.

A native data migration feature of PowerStore that imports external block storage to PowerStore

Correct Answer: D

The Import External Storage feature of PowerStore is a native data migration feature that imports external block storage to PowerStore. This helps in seamlessly migrating data from other storage systems to PowerStore, ensuring efficient and streamlined storage management.

Question 4 of 53

What is the recommended Windows multi-pathing policy for block volumes on a PowerStore array?

A.

Least QueueDepth

B.

Round-Robin

C.

FailOver

D.

Least Weighted Paths

Correct Answer: B

The recommended Windows multi-pathing policy for block volumes on a PowerStore array is Round-Robin. Round-Robin distributes I/O requests evenly across all available paths, preventing any single path from becoming a bottleneck. This method enhances performance and ensures efficient utilization of resources.

Question 5 of 53

While configuring a Dell switch with PowerStore, what are the recommended license outputs from a show license status command?

A.

Type: Term-Based, Status: Active

B.

Status: Perpetual, Type: Open

C.

Type: Perpetual, Status: Active

D.

Status: Term-Based, Type: Unlimited

Correct Answer: C

When configuring a Dell switch with PowerStore, the recommended license outputs from a 'show license status' command typically show 'Type: Perpetual, Status: Active'. A perpetual license means it does not expire, and 'Active' indicates that the license is currently in effect.
