A customer has DR enabled between their primary and backup sites using EMC VNX and
MirrorView. SnapView Snapshots are enabled at the backup site. A third VNX array is installed at

the backup site. The customer tries to use Incremental SAN Copy (ISC) to pull data updates from
a SnapView snapshot onto stopped Web server LUNs located on the new VNX. The customer
reports they are not able to configure the SAN Copy session.
Why does the customer need to rework this solution?

An Oracle DBA creates a new database and requests a LUN to store the online redo logs. What
is the recommended configuration for this LUN?

A hospital wants to configure a tiered pool on an EMC VNX to support a vSphere ESXi 5.0
environment with fifteen hosts. Which disk layout is supported for a tiered pool?

A DBA wants to create a replicated, recoverable copy of an Oracle 11g database environment that
will reside on a number of EMC VNX target drives.
The DBA performs the following:
– Puts the required tablespaces in hot backup mode
– Issues a checkpoint to the database
– Synchronizes and fractures the Oracle device pairs
– Ends hot backup mode
– Brings the replicated copy online
What action must the DBA take to enable the copy to start up successfully?

A customer plans to move a performance-sensitive application to a new EMC VNX with all SAS
drives. The application will reside on an NFS export, and the customer requires the file system
provide consistent performance. The customer also needs to create additional CIFS shares,
which do not share the same performance requirement.
How should both sets of file systems be created?

A customer has an EMC VNX dedicated to an SQL Server environment. They report performance
issues. You notice there is frequent forced flushing on the VNX. What action can they take to
correct this without adversely affecting performance?

A customer wants to implement a DR solution on two VNX for File located at a primary and a
backup site. They have three VDMs, each with a CIFS file system providing shares for sales,
finance and marketing. What must be configured for a successful failover?

You implement FAST VP on an existing EMC VNX. The Extreme Performance pool holds 5% of
usable storage, the Performance pool holds 20%, and the Capacity pool holds 75%. The Tiering
Policy is set to Auto.
The attached hosts run several applications. Some applications access data frequently, while
others are write-once read-never. Twenty minutes after tiering is started, the customer reports
there is no performance improvement. How should you respond?

A customer is choosing which drives will be used for their SavVol. What are the characteristics of
SavVol?

What is the default file system type when creating a File System on a VNX?
