Refer to the exhibit.
To which shelf and port should SAS HBA slot 1 port B be connected?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is A.

To determine the correct port connection for SAS HBA slot 1 port B, we need to look at the pattern of connections depicted in the diagram. The diagram shows a flow where SAS HBA slot 1 port B should connect to the BH port of Shelf 04.

Question 2 of 54
When using CIFS from a PowerProtect DD system, what should be changed on a Windows machine?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is D.

When using CIFS from a PowerProtect DD system, it is recommended to change the SESSTIMEOUT value to 3600 seconds on a Windows machine. SESSTIMEOUT specifies the session timeout for SMB (Server Message Block), and adjusting this value helps in preventing timeouts that can occur due to longer processing times on the PowerProtect DD system.

Question 3 of 54
What is the maximum capacity for a DDVE?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is B.

The maximum capacity for a DDVE (Data Domain Virtual Edition) when installed on-premises is 96 TB. This information aligns with common Data Domain specifications for customer-installed setups. While it is true that DDVE can scale up to 256 TB when deployed in a cloud environment, the question does not specify the environment. Therefore, based on the general knowledge that on-premises DDVE scales up to 96 TB, this is the most appropriate answer.

Question 4 of 54
A technician is upgrading a DD9400 with a DS60 expansion shelf with 60 drives. In the GUI interface, only 30 drives are accessible.
What is causing these drives to be inaccessible?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is D.

The drives are inaccessible because the capacity license applied is only for 30 drives. The DS60 can have 60 drives installed, but the number of drives that are accessible depends on the capacity license that has been applied to the system. In this case, the license only allows for 30 drives to be accessible.

Question 5 of 54
What is a requirement to configure the PowerProtect DD tape out to cloud feature?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is C.

To configure the PowerProtect DD tape out to cloud feature, a Tape Out to Cloud License is essential. This specific license enables the capability to move tape data to the cloud. Although a Cloud Tier Capacity License is related to cloud functionalities, it is not the specific requirement for the tape out to cloud feature.
