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?

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?

You are an administrator for ABC.com. ABC.com currently has two existing DS-16B switches in
two separate SANs. The hosts consist of two AIX servers and five Windows servers. Each server
currently has two HBAs, one for the storage SAN and one for the tape backup SAN. The AIX is a
mission critical environment, but is rarely changed. Servers might need to be added during
business hours, because the Windows environment is expected to triple in size over the next few
months. The storage array has already been upgraded to a new CX500. ABC.com wants to
replace the switches with 2Gb technology, to support the CX500 and provide high availability. The
SAN architecture must also be scalable to accommodate future growth. ABC.com has also been
experiencing the following problems:
Several AIX outages related to the SAN. An AIX server disruption during updates to the SAN
fabric while adding new windows serversA switch port failure on an AIX host connection. After
moving the fiber cable to an open port on the switch, all the AIX device IDs changed Of the
following, which configuration would satisfy ABC.com high availability requirements and eliminate
the AIX problems?

ABC.com has a DMX 1000 at their production site, and aim to obtain another DMX 1000 for their

Disaster Recovery (DR) site 20 miles (30km) away. You discover that its RPO is 30 minutes.
ABC.com wants to replicate a total of 30 LUNs to the remote site over the available T3 link.
ABC.com’s application is response time sensitive. You assemble Performance Analyzer data for a
normal working day and note that the write response time is 5ms, the read response time is 14ms,
the average I/O size is 4KB, the write/s is 400 and the reads/s is 700. Which solution would you
recommend as a result of this analysis?

A manufacturing company engaged EMC to build a comprehensive backup strategy for the Oracle
Servers supporting its billing departments. Your proposed solution includes both a SAN connected
to a new tape library and services to install and configure the new equipment. What is the scope of
this solution?

You interview the IT staff and management of ABC.com. You learn that storage policies have
been defined and documented and that all staff follow these policies. Which EMC Enterprise
Maturity rating most closely reflects the process maturity?

Prior to planning and designing a remote replication solution, what must you do first?

In which scenario would you prefer RAID-1/0 to RAID-5 on a CLARiiON Storage array?

Customer applications are running on HP-UX servers attached to a CX700. The CLARiiON LUNs
currently used by the application are 50GB metaLUNs. The application require more disk space.
Expansion of the CLARiiON metLUNs to 100GB has been proposed. What additional information
is critical to the success of this solution?

You recently suggested an ILM strategy to ABC.com. The customer said that they have already
implemented ILM. The company policy is to hold a year worth of data on Symmetrix and then
archive it to optical disk. According to ILM principles, why is this customer process flawed?
