Which feature will provide this capability?
A customer wants to consolidate their four CX700 arrays to one DMX. Their Windows server volumes span multiple CXs. In order to maintain consistency on the source arrays, Open Replicator Hot Pull is being used for the migration.
Which feature will provide this capability?
Which solution should you suggest?
A national bank is using EMC DiskXtender for Windows to archive scanned check images to an EMC Centera and inactive file data to tape media. They are using EMC NetWorker to back up the EMC DiskXtender server.
To meet new government regulations, a copy of the check images must be maintained on tape media.
Apart from meeting the regulations, if possible, the bank wants to continue archiving the scanned check images to the EMC Centera.
The bank approached you to analyze their archive environment to meet the new requirements.
Which solution should you suggest?
Minimal operational disruption Which solution would best meet the customer’s requirements?
A customer has an Oracle eBusiness suite, PeopleSoft, and a Web application environment backended by Oracle databases. They have asked you to resolve scalability issues as the data is growing more quickly than was initially anticipated. The current environment does not have Fibre Channel deployed.
The primary decision factors in this solution, in order of importance, are:
1. Price 2. Scalability 3. Ease of maintenance 4. Minimal operational disruption Which solution would best meet the customer’s requirements?
What was the likely cause of the performance problem during the test?
A customer asks for assistance designing their MirrorView/S environment. They recently performed testing of MirrorView/S to a second array in the same data center. The performance of the primary LUNs unexpectedly decreased significantly.
What was the likely cause of the performance problem during the test?
Which technology would suit their requirements and provide the shortest recovery point objective?
A DMX customer has identified a need for an out of region (> 1,000 km) disaster recovery solution.
Which technology would suit their requirements and provide the shortest recovery point objective?
What is the minimum recovery time objective that this supports?
A customer plans to locate their primary production site and their secondary disaster recovery site 1,000 kilometers apart. The EMC account team has recommended they use DMX3s running SRDF/A.
During the planning phase it is estimated that:
The SRDF/A minimum cycle time parameter will be set to 20 seconds It will take 3 hours after a primary site failure to declare a disaster and failover to the secondary site After a failover to the disaster site, it will take two hours to bring up the applications and make the secondary site operational What is the minimum recovery time objective that this supports?
Where can the customer quickly locate this information?
A customer is concerned that their SnapView activity is negatively impacting the overall performance of their array. The customer would also like to understand where to quickly find out how many reads are coming from the Source LUNs as opposed to the snapshots.
