When configuring Isilon SmartConnect in a customer environment, which records are required for a supported
implementation?

A customer is purchasing a 5-node Isilon X400 cluster for an HPC application running on Linux. The customer
currently has 10 HPC nodes and will persistent mount the Isilon cluster through NFSv3. Which recommended
configuration addresses the customer’s requirementsfor high availability and throughput?

While configuring Isilon SmartConnect, a customer has determined that their workload primarily consists of
short-lived connections, such as HTTP and/or FTP. W hich load- balancing policy will provide the most efficient
client distribution?

An Isilon customer has an environment with very different workloads. They would like to assign clientsto
performance tiers based on the resources needed. Which software functionality can be used to meet this
requirement?

When configuring Dynamic IP Address Allocation in Isilon SmartConnect, which policy setting needs to be
determined?

Based on the following criteria:
· Spans 3 – 40 nodes
· Logical grouping of drives
· Automatically assigned
· Intelligently distributes disks to manage performance
Which Isilon cluster component is described?

An Isilon customer currently has an 8-node cluster of older X-Series nodes. They are planning several
upgrades over the next three years in the followingstages:
· Stage 1: Add 2 X-Series nodes to meet performancegrowth · Stage 2: Add 4 NL-Series nodes to meet
archive capacity growth · Stage 3: Add 10 New X-Series nodes as a hardware refresh · Stage 4: Remove older
X-Series nodes
At which stage will a SmartPool license be required?

relates to business objectives such as value and SLAs?

Which Isilon feature provides the ability to build a cluster using different node types and tiers to meet a
customer’s business objectives?

An Isilon customer needs to provide low latency I/Ofor their files due to a workflow which involves small,
random reads and writes. Which SSD strategy is mosteffective for this use case?
