A customer wants to implement a pair of EVA8400 arrays with Continuous Access replication and
two VLS9000s with LBR (Low Bandwidth Replication) in remote data centers. A consultant creates
the necessary BOM (Bill of Material) for the hardware and software. Which information is needed
from the customer to correctly quote the support services for this project?

A customer with unprecedented storage growth and performance needs is evaluating extremely
scalable, flexible, and cost-efficient products. Which HP Network Storage Systems scale-out beyond
traditional network attached storage in both capacity and performance?

A consultant designs a disaster tolerance and disaster recovery solution in a Windows environment
using Enterprise Virtual Arrays (EVAs) and Cluster Extension EVAs (CLXs). Why should a majority
node be set or a fileshare witness be integrated in the design?

Your customer has a medium BladeSystem environment and wants to implement a P4500G2 storage
system with 10GbE for their new virtualized environment. They would also like to move to a diskbased virtual library system that will leverage their new 10GbE infrastructure. Which HP Virtual Tape
Library is capable of this?

What is a disaster recovery concept that defines what an organization considers as an acceptable
amount of data loss?

A customer has performance problems during backup and restore sessions. The customer’s dual-site
SAN design is built on one single-mode fibre pair (per fabric) between the two sites. Which solution
can improve the current bandwidth between the two sites, without requiring more physical fibre links?

A customer owns MSA2212fc solutions and needs to improve the capacity and functionality of these
storage arrays. A consultant proposes an upgrade to the latest edition of array controller hardware
paired with additional drive enclosures. Where is the most current listing of supported operating
systems for the proposed solution located?

A customer requires an entry-level SAN solution which provides FC and iSCSI protocols including
asynchronous replication. Which HP Storage Disk Array family should you include in your design?

Which HP Storage solution provides mid-range to enterprise-class environments that require high
performance, high capacity and high availability?

Scenario: The customer is a university with 20,000 students and 3,500 staff. They have been directed
to reduc their overall IT spending for the next 3 years by 30%. A major issue is that most of the
university’s server and storage infrastructure is now over 3 years old and they need to show substantial
returr on investment before new hardware can be purchased.
Their environment consists of HP BladeSystem c7000, with sixteen BL685c servers, a mixture of
twelve Gl and four G5 servers. The G5 servers are the newest (less than a year old) while the Gl
servers are now more than three years old. Most equipment was installed three years earlier, The
interconnect modules in the C7000 Blade Enclosure for both the Ethernet and fibre connections are
Pass Thru Modules.The storage is an EVA8000 with 50TB of disk, 30TE of Fibre Channel disk and
20TB of FATA disk. This too is over 3 years old. Connecting all the fibre components are two HP
MDS9216i SAN Switches.
Their entire server base is virtualized using ESX 3.5 utilizing VMware High Availability (HA) and
DRS. All of the university’s critical systems run on the BL685c Gl servers. The university requires a

24 x 7 uptime on all e-Learning systems including email. The university does not utilize any
additional software tools to manage their systems other than VMware vCentre and HP
CommandView.
The customer believes they need a scale out storage array rather than a scale up array. Which possible
replacement solution should be suggested to the customer and what is the advantage of this solution?
