A customer calls you and asks if you could come by and interpret their InsightIQ data. You see
that namespace reads are 63% of the workload.
What would you recommend to help this cluster’s namespace performance?

Refer to the exhibit.

You want to add redundancy to your network configuration, rather than performance. You have
configured all interfaces into the default SmartConnect zone.
How should you configure the switches and Isilon networking to provide your desired network
redundancy?

Refer to the exhibit.

Your customer has three different clusters. File systems on two of the clusters are at 90% full, and
the largest cluster is 10% full. Active data resides on the largest cluster. The customer has five
different node types totaling 2PB and 54 nodes. Nodes from left to right are as shown:
1. X200
2.12000X
3.36000X
4.NL108
5.108NL
They have a Smartpool license and believe that tiering data would help free up needed space.

After talking with the customer and explaining the use of SmartPools, how would you recommend
optimizing utilization across all of the nodes that the customer owns?

— Exhibit –
A large manufacturing company is an existing Isilon customer with a cluster consisting of four
NL400 nodes with 4TB drives. The cluster is using N+2:1 protection level and the file system
shows that it is 60% utilized. Home directories and file shares comprise 75% of the existing
content and the remainder is inactive deep archive. The company has 1,000 employees using
Windows and Mac clients participating in a single Active Directory (AD) forest.
During a meeting with the CIO and Director of IT you discuss the company’s recent acquisition –
an engineering firm that specializes in Computer Aided Design (CAD). The engineering firm has
400 UNIX workstations that produce technical drawings which are currently stored on another
vendor’s SAN solution. The all UNIX environment uses NIS for authentication and name
resolution. They do not currently use DNS or LDAP. The engineering company has an old storage
system that has been experiencing problems and the CIO would like you to migrate the data onto
the Isilon cluster. The CIO would like to eliminate all tape and recover the data onto disk.
The CIO is concerned about security of the company’s intellectual property, especially with the
rapid adoption of mobile devices and external cloud content sharing services such as DropBox,
Egnyte, and SugarSync. They would like to implement an alternative that provides external file
sharing and mobile device synchronization while maintaining security control over the company’s
data.
The Director of IT reports that users are storing non-work related content on the Isilon cluster.
They would like to limit the amount of capacity that each user can consume in their home directory
and want to ensure you provide the capability to easily visualize which users are over their
allotment. The company’s Windows users currently leverage Windows Shadow Copy to recover
files that have been accidentally deleted. The IT department wants to ensure that Mac and
incoming UNIX clients have the same functionality.

The Director of IT also mentions that users are reporting slow response times when browsing their
home directories and shared folders. They are concerned that Isilon cannot scale to support their
combined requirements.
The customer provides the following environment summary from the engineering firm’s recently
departed IT staff:
20 TB of Home Directory data
100 TB of active CAD projects
400 TB of archived data stored on tape at an offsite warehouse

was previously used for archiving to now be used to back up some of their data.
What do you recommend to the Director of IT as the best architecture to achieve this goal?
