What is an RPQ?

A customer wants to deploy a 6 TB database using Storwize V7000. The exhibit shows the Disk
Magic model that was created to predict the performance. When the system was deployed the
service times at different IOPS were consistently longer than forecasted by Disk Magic.

What might cause this situation?

What is the maximum number of I/O groups supported in a SAN Volume Controller clustered

A technical specialist has been asked to design a solution to address a video imaging archiving
need. The customer needs to store images on disk for 90 days then keep them on tape for a

period of 7 years. There will be little access to the data once it is written initially, unless it is
needed for legal reasons. There is no need for high performance and the video files are quite large
in size. Initially, there will be 20 TB of data to be archived with an estimated annual growth of 50
percent for the next five years. The customer wants to add the tape system into a 42U rack and
wants to be able to scale the tape system for more cartridge slots and more drives
What solution should the technical specialist recommend to meet these requirements?
