Your customer is migrating to VMware vSphere 5. Your solution includes HP 3PAR StoreServ
Storage with licenses for Remote Copy and sub-LUN tiering. The customer is interested in
implementing VMware Storage I/O Control and asks if there are any interoperability concerns with
your solution.
How does the inclusion of VMware Storage I/O Control impact your solution?

A.
VMware Storage I/O Control integrates into the proposed solution with no changes.
B.
HP 3PAR Application Software Suite for VMware must be added to the solution
C.
HP 3PAR Adaptive Optimization cannot be used in the solution.
D.
VMware Adaptive Queue Depth Throttling must be enabled.
The answear is right.
Storage I/O Control (SIOC) is a vSphere feature which manages ESXi device-queue depths, while AO is an HP 3PAR feature which moves data between storage tiers at scheduled intervals depending upon usage patterns. The two features operate
at different layers, so there is no conflict between them.
