Which response provides the best answer?
A customer has purchased a VNX array and is in the process of allocating RAID 5 (4+1) storage. They have asked you for best practices on number and placement of LUNs for the Reserved LUN pool.
Which response provides the best answer?
What is the expected initial bandwidth at which data chunks will be written into the Reserved LUN Pool?
Click on the calculator icon in the upper left-hand corner. A customer wants to add a SnapView snapshot to a 500 GiB LUN. Captured data show that the LUN performs 500 4 KiB IOPs with a read/write ratio of 3:1. What is the expected initial bandwidth at which data chunks will be written into the Reserved LUN Pool?
Based on the datastore information, what would you recommend?
A customer has the following requirements for their ESX environment:
– Three 500 GiB datastores
– One 1 TiB datastore
– One 7 TiB datastore
Based on the datastore information, what would you recommend?
What should the proposed configuration be to minimize the costs with EMC best practices in mind?
Click on the calculator icon in the upper left-hand corner. A customer has an application requirement of 3000 IOPS with 60/40 read/write ratio and with 5 TiB storage capacity. The I/O is random. The customer is concerned about cost. You are proposing VNX with 300 GB 10K SAS drives.
What should the proposed configuration be to minimize the costs with EMC best practices in mind?
What storage feature of the VNX provides the best performance for the SQL application?
A customer is considering the VNX to support the SQL environment. What storage feature of the VNX provides the best performance for the SQL application?
Calculating for RAID 5, what is the minimum number of 15K SAS drives required?
A customer is planning on migrating their Exchange data to a VNX array. You have gathered the following information:
– 6000 IOPS; 50% read/write ratio
Calculating for RAID 5, what is the minimum number of 15K SAS drives required?
What would you advise the customer?
A customer has an existing Unified VNX which is used only for block data. They are now looking to consolidate a few Windows servers onto the VNX. There is empty space on existing pools, which the customer is planning to use for file storage.
What would you advise the customer?
What configuration using externalization of BLOB data should you recommend?
Your customer has recently deployed MS SharePoint using MS SQL as the backend database. Their deployment has grown to over 1 TiB in size and continues to increase approximately 10% per month. Their users have reported performance issues.
What configuration using externalization of BLOB data should you recommend?
Where in the configuration do the Control LUNs for file reside?
Your customer currently has a Block-only VNX. They now want to add file services to replace an older Windows Server cluster. You are planning to add the file option to the current configuration.
Where in the configuration do the Control LUNs for file reside?
What do you recommend to make AVM use multiple LUNs when creating a file system from the user-defined pool?
A customer created a user-defined storage pool to physically segregate the file systems of a business unit. The customer was careful to select LUNs from different RAID Groups for the user- defined pool. After creating a file system from this storage pool with AVM, the customer discovered that the file system was created on a single LUN instead of multiple LUNs for better performance.
