Which HyperSwap configuration requirement needs to be part of installation?

Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is D.

Question 2 of 60

A cloud solution is being planned using the IBM Storwize family to provide storage for multiple clients on IBM Power and Intel hosts.

Which solution provides the necessary storage for the primary site and a disaster recovery location at a data center 1500 kilometers away?

Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is B.

Metro Mirror and Global Mirror are technologies that enable you to keep a real-time copy of a disk at a remote site that contains another SVC Cluster or Storwize
V7000 system.

Incorrect Answers -
A: FlashCopy is a function that allows you to create a point-in-time copy of one of your SVC disks. This might be helpful when performing backups or application testing. These copies may be cascaded upon one another, read from, written to, and even reversed.
These copies are able to conserve storage, if needed, by being space-efficient copies that only record items that have changed from the originals instead of full copies.
C: Volume Mirroring is a function designed to increase high availability of the storage infrastructure. It provides the ability to create up to two local copies of a volume.
