A customer wants to add a SnapView snapshot to a 300 GB LUN. Captured data shows that the
LUN performs 200 random 4 KB writes per second.

What is the expected initial bandwidth at which data chunks will be written into the reserved LUN
pool?

What is the “rule of thumb” for calculating the amount of Data Mover memory SavVol space
requires?

Your customer wants to increase the length SnapSure snapshots are being kept but is concerned
about having the available capacity to extend the SavVol Space. The file system is currently 350
GiB in size and the SavVol is 20 GiB in size.
By how much capacity will the SavVol be extended when the High Watermark is reached?

In which way do VNX Snapshots differ from SnapView Snapshots?

Which VNX local protection product provides redirect on writes, point-in-time copies for block
LUNs?

A customer is purchasing EMC AppSync software and additional VNX array capacity to create
application consistent replicas of their MS Exchange databases using Microsoft Volume Shadow
Copy Service. The Storage Administrator asked for a review of the command signals and data
flows during the backup process. What are they?

What are the typical I/O characteristics of a single SnapSure SavVol?

A customer plans to replace a CLARiiON CX4-960 with a new VNX system. The disks on the CX4-
960 are all configured as RAID Groups. The new system will use Pools exclusively.
Local replicas are made using SnapView Snapshots, and have required the use of Reserved

LUNs with a total size of 11 TB. The customer wants to take a point-in-time-copy every hour from
8:00 am to 5:00 pm.
The customer wants to know if they should continue to use SnapView Snapshots, or should
change to VNX Snapshots. What do you tell the customer?

The customer wants to know if they should continue to use SnapView Snapshots, or should
change to using VNX Snapshots. They want you to explain your answer.

A customer is configuring loopback replication on their VNX. They are confused by the size and

number of bitmaps and blockmaps to allow.
How many blockmaps are there per file system?
