Which change should you make to their configuration to resolve this issue?
Scenario:
A company has been using a Fibre Channel infrastructure for the last three years. The
company is located in a nine-story building but is currently occupying eight floors. Each of
the nine floors has its own Brocade 8 Gb SAN Switch with Fibre Channel, which has a
license for eight ports. Each department hosts a single Windows 2008 terminal server host
for connection to their storage and data applications on the SAN, which is in the data center
on the first floor. Each Brocade 8/8 switch is connected to the floor above and below by a
single fibre connection. Refer to the Scenario:
As utilization of the terminal servers increases, the company notices more I/O timeouts from
the servers on the second through eight floors. Without upgrading the current company
infrastructure.

Which HP software solution integrates the HyperVisor management and solves the company need for simple,central
Scenario:
Following the merger of two online entertainment companies, management is integrating the
two distinct service systems that were individually built and optimized prior to the acquisition.
Reducing IT costs is a majorgoal, but the company also wants a system infrastructure that
allows quick, flexible handling of the onlinecontent requests, and that is highly reliable and
has excellent expandability. The newly merged company is expanding its web-based music
entertainment services by establishing a mobile content business model and launching a
comprehensive community site that allows multiple consumers access to content in
collaboration with PCs and cell phones. The multiple consumer web service includes video
files. which occupy 90% or more of the total capacity and require an average of 400 Mbps
network bandwidth for content distribution. These files piece a heavy burden on the
distribution system. and this has prompted the company to consider a virtual server
environment. They need to achieve this without lowering service quality. Some of the
additional business criteria identified in customer planning interviews includes:
Twenty or more physical servers need to be integrate into just three units The storage
environment, previously structured as individual server units, requires shifting to shared
storageusing a Storage Area Network (SAN) Increase the overall system reliability by
consolidating the system environment. Not interested in direct-attached storage. Shared
storage makes it possible to increase usage efficiencyabove that offered by direct-attached
storage, and also adds a cost advantage.
Management of all storage, HBAs. and switches should be done from a GUI-based
dashboard .
Multiple solutions, prioritized with a recommendation

One solution design you provide includes an HP BladeSystem c7000 using HP Virtual
Connect FlexFabricmodules, an HP P6300 Enterprise Virtual Array, and a VMware vSphere
cluster running on HP BL460c Gen8servers.
Which HP software solution integrates the HyperVisor management and solves the company
need for simple,centralized, and efficient network management?
Which Storage technology enables the server virtualization necessary to meet the company business needs?
