You have installed Symmetrix Performance Analyzer (SPA) on a server which already had
Symmetrix Management Console (SMC) installed and working. You verify that you are able to see
your arrays in SPA. Two days later you launch SPA but you are not able to see any statistics for
the Symmetrix arrays.
What do you need to do to ensure SPA is configured properly?

You are configuring a new installation of Symmetrix Performance Analyzer (SPA) to monitor two
production Symmetrix arrays and one test lab array. Complete statistics for the two production
arrays need to be gathered constantly. The test lab array needs to have statistics available for
historic review.
How should the arrays be registered for data collection in SPA?

You are configuring a new installation of Symmetrix Performance Analyzer (SPA) to monitor two
production Symmetrix arrays. You want to ensure that certain statistics are easily available for
these arrays when looking at the various views.
How should you configure SPA to ensure that these statistics are easily available?

Using Symmetrix Performance Analyzer (SPA), what is the simplest way to get an overall point-intime view of possible performance bottlenecks on a Symmetrix array?

What is the maximum number of concurrent differential TimeFinder/Clone sessions that can be
created from a single source device?

What is the maximum number of concurrent non-differential TimeFinder/Clone copies that can be
created against a single standard source volume?

A symclone create command has been issued and the clone session has not yet been activated.
What is the state of the clone target device before a symclone activate is issued?

A customer has executed the symclone create command with the -precopy option. The clone
session was then activated. At this point, what is the state of the clone target device?

An administrator has added STD devices to an RDF1 device group to function as clone targets.
When the administrator tries to create a clone session with the symclone -g DeviceGroup create
command, the response is:
‘Create’ operation execution is in progress for device group ‘DeviceGroup’.
Please wait… The device group has no BCV devices that are associated with it.
A subsequent query command shows no clone relationship. How should the clone operation be
performed?

A Symmetrix user has activated a TimeFinder/Snap session from a clone target. Afterwards the
user wants to recreate the clone session. However, the command fails.
What is the reason for the failure?
