Which two commands do you run to test the bandwidth and integrity of the ISL?
A customer is experience poor performance over one of the ISLs between a DS-16B2 and ED-24000. Which two commands do you run to test the bandwidth and integrity of the ISL?
What must be done to identify the problem?
A customer’s SAN consists of fabrics A and B. The customer is using PowerPath to monitor
performance on the host. The powermt display command shows that the HBA connected to fabric
B is doing 40% less I/O than the 2nd HBA connected to fabric A. What must be done to identify

What must you do to make the two fabrics merge?
Your customer is reconfiguring the SAN. They are using an MDS switch in fabric A and a B-series
switch in fabric B. They need to share resources across the fabrics. On the weekend a merge of

exist. E_D_TOV and R_A_TOV are equal and Interop mode is set on both fabrics. What must you
do to make the two fabrics merge?
What must be done for the customer to monitor the switch?
A Customer is unable to monitor a Connectrix MDS switch from ControlCenter. What must be

How many ED-140M2’s are required considering the future growth?
The customer wants to consolidate their current SAN consisting of four fully populated ED-64M2s,
two DS-32M2 switches and two DS-32B2 switches. Current total throughput on the fabric is
614Gb/s. Anticipated growth is 50% increase in throughput over the next two years. The customer
wants ED-140M2. How many ED-140M2’s are required considering the future growth?
