What else should you document?
ABC.com environment consists of 35 UNIX servers and 15 Windows servers. All of the servers
have either internal storage or a combination of internal and direct attached storage. The servers
are used for files sharing, home directories and database. You have documented information
about all of the servers. Your goal is to perform a complete technical assessment of the
environment. What else should you document?
Which disk layout is considered best practice, and should affect your design?
You are a designer for ABC.com. ABC.com instructs you to design a NAS solution that will involve
adding an NSX with four X-Blades to an existing CX700. ABC.com has two ports on each SP
available to dedicate to the NSX. Which disk layout is considered best practice, and should affect
your design?
you need to analyze, so that you can choose the most suitable management application for this environment?
ABC.com, who has 10 Solaris and 30 Windows servers in their environment, employ shared
networked storage to aid project development. ABC.com does not want to add additional servers
for storage as they currently limit storage growth. Expansion over the next three years is predicted
to be not in excess of 30%.The storage made use of, for the network file systems, must be
maintained on a solution that is the most cost effective as well as the easiest to manage. Storage
must also, however, be trailed so that essential storage for projects can be charged back to the
development teams. Also, the network file system will be used for storage, which is not related to
projects, from other departments. Space allocation for non-project files needs to be monitored and
reports should be generated for management. What is the best method of assembling the specific
qualification information, which you need to analyze, so that you can choose the most suitable
management application for this environment?
what must be considered for the design of each CX-Series array?
ABC.com plans to employ MirrorView/S between their two CX700 arrays at remote facilities. in a
design meeting, ABC.com indicates that they will be mirroring LUNs on each array with bidirectional mirroring between the arrays. ABC.com wants to be able to decrease the time needed
to re-sync the mirrors if the link goes down, offer redundancy in the event of a Storage Processor
failure, as well as produce the least performance impact on each server. To achieve ABC.com’s
request, what must be considered for the design of each CX-Series array?

ABC.com has requested that you provide the number of physical disks needed to support their
Microsoft Exchange 2003 Storage Groups. ABC.com currently has 12,500 users at 1.2 IOPS and,
at peak activity, up to 10,000 users could be logged on to Exchange. What additional information

what must you do?
ABC.com has two CLARiiON CX-series arrays in its SAN environment. It has a CX700 in its
corporate data center and a CX700 in its remote Field Office 50 miles away. ABC.comrecently
purchased MirrorView software and plan to deploy a MirrorView/S solution between sites, and also
use bi-directional mirroring. ABC.com will be using an existing DWDM solution and share the
same link with a Symmetrix SRDF solution. To implement MirrorView in this environment, what
must you do?
Which method should you use?
You are a designer for ABC.com. ABC.comruns its Windows-based database on external disks
and plans to move the data onto a CLARiiON. You plan to collect performance information on the
current environment. Which method should you use?
How can this problem be solved?
ABC.com is experiencing problems with its current Legato NetWorker backup infrastructure.
ABC.com has one tape library connected to the SAN. One backup server, which is also the
storage node, manages the tape library. All backups are directed to the backup server, but the
backups are not completing on time. After an analysis, you discover that the tape library is
handling all activities without any problems. Actually, the backup server is overloaded and it is not
sending sufficient backup data to keep the tape drives busy. ABC.com wants to keep
administration as simple as possible, with only minor disruptions to the environment while the
changes are implemented. How can this problem be solved?
which Celerra model would you advise for this situation?
ABC.com needs to add NAS capability to use excess capacity in their CLARiiON storage array.
ABC.com has 140 Windows servers that are all at least three years old. There is a total of 8.2TB
of Windows data. You have decided that all of the servers can be consolidated onto one Celerra.
Of the following, which Celerra model would you advise for this situation?
