A customer creates a Remote Mirror of a 1 GB RAID 5 pool LUN. The primary LUN is presented
to a Windows storage group. The customer wants to add a Secondary Image to the Remote
Mirror. The only LUNs available are 5 GB RAID 1/0 LUNs presented to a Linux storage group.
The customer reports they are unable to add the Secondary Image. What do you advise?

A storage administrator creates a new file system on their EMC VNX. They observe that the new
file system does not perform as well as the first set of file systems they created. AVM was used to
create all file systems using pool LUNs. All disks in the VNX are the same size and speed SAS
drives.
When the storage administrator attempts to create another file system, using the same resources,
the creation process fails. Why did the file system creation fail on the last attempt?

A customer has recently installed ESXi 5.0 on a five host cluster attached to an EMC VNX using
FCoE. EMC PowerPath/VE has been installed on all hosts in the cluster for load balancing. The
customer wants to issue PowerPath commands to all the hosts from a Remote Management
Server. Which server deployment will meet the customer’s requirements?

A customer configures replication between two data movers for their VDM environment. The
primary data mover has one 1 Gb copper ethernet port and the destination Data Mover has one 10
Gb optical network port. The customer completes a failover test and then remote clients report
they are unable to access data. The customer requests your assistance.
What is the most likely cause of the issue observed during failover test?

A customer plans to place their SQL server transaction logs on an EMC VNX. The customer
provides the following information about their SQL environment:
• Database block size is 8 KB
• Transaction log growth is 10 GB
• Performance sample period is 1 hour
• 15K SAS drives rated at 180 I/O per second each
What is the minimum number of physical disks required to support the information provided by the
customer?

You are implementing SAN Copy for Linux hosts connected to an EMC VNX using FC and iSCSI
connectivity. There are eight queued sessions and multiple applications contending for bandwidth.
Which configurable SAN Copy feature would you recommend?

A corporation has configured highly available CIFS file systems with VDMs. Replication is
configured from a primary site to a secondary site. During testing, the VDM and user file systems
switchover successfully, but 30 minutes later Windows clients still cannot access their shares.
What is the most likely cause of this problem?

A customer configures SnapView clones on their EMC VNX. A 256 GB clone is fractured for 10
minutes. The source LUN performs fifty 32 KB random writes per second. The clone
resynchronization is configured to 6 MB/s. How long will it take to resynchronize the clone?

A shipping company tracks shipments and customer data using an Oracle 10g environment with
ASM. There are several EMC VNX LUNs presented to Oracle. What ASM feature will help avoid
hotpots?

A company has two locations and wants to implement a DR solution for their Exchange
databases. The following requirements factor into their SLA:
– Multi-application support.
– Continuous replication with zero data loss.
– Minimal replication load on application host.
– Support a distance of 60 km.
Which DR solution meets the SLA requirements?
