   Correct answer C.16
   Enginuity limits the number of concurrent sessions per Symmetrix device to 16

      GrnHulk is correct.

      With Enginuity 5876 and above, on VMAX 40K arrays all TimeFinder/Snap sessions will be Multi-virtual snaps regardless of the environment variable.

      SYMCLI_MULTI_VIRTUAL_SNAP = ENABLED, increases the maximum number of Snap sessions to 128
      –Module 2: TimeFInder/Snap Operations

   Again, with Enginuity 5875, the maximum number of Snap sessions from a single source device is 14. This is because 2 sessions are now reserved for restore operations.

   The key is default. Multivirtual with 128 sessions is only used by default in RM, in S.E you’ll need to set a define. So answer is A-14
