A company is planning to deploy array-based synchronous remote replication between two sites
over 100 MB/s FC links. The two sites are 50 miles apart. Each replication channel can handle a
maximum of 1,000 IOPS. The workload profile of the application is as follows:
5,000 IO/s
Read/Write Ratio = 60:40
Write block size = 8 KB

If design best practices are considered, how many replication channels are required for this
solution when trunking is enabled?

A.
2
