A customer desires to implement several servers with the same operating system through a SAN
to a storage array configured with a single LUN. What is required for all servers to have concurrent
access to the LUN?

A customer in the medical services industry is having performance issues with the database that
maintains patient records. Recently the hospital expanded the SAN and added the fibre channel
directors in a core-edge topology which included moving the server from the core to the edge.
After determining the TCP/IP network is functioning correctly with no over-utilization of network
resources, the system administrator is attempting to determine what possible causes there are for
the degradation. What is a possible cause of the performance problem?

Which HBA parameter can be configured using an HBA configuration tool?

Infrastructure parameters include a small core edge design with all peripherals (disk and tape)
located in the core and all hosts connected to edge switches. Each host includes two HBAs, in
fabric A and B respectively, with all disks visible on both fabrics and tape devices divided between
fabrics. The tape devices are single initiator zoned to LTO II tape drives. You are recovering a 200
GB journaling file system, 70% utilized; spread over eight mirrored spindles using a 32K stripe
element. During recovery of one host, other hosts on the same edge report SCSI errors. What is
the most likely cause?

A company is synchronously replicating data between sites that are 100km apart. Which
technology lets them achieve this goal with minimal impact to performance?

A company has a SAN where servers and storage are distributed throughout the enterprise. A
customer has implemented a SAN solution using a ring topology with two ISLs between each
switch. When compared to a mesh topology, which two options are valid for a ring topology?
(Choose two)

The SAN Management application server crashed and your SAN is having throughput problems.
Which protocol tool can you implement to collect information about attached SAN device
throughput?

Administrators must have switch management access outside of the data center. Which two will
help you properly configure security? (Choose two.)

You have a SAN with four servers connected to an edge switch in a core edge configuration. Each
server has an average requirement of 40MB/s. There is currently a single 2Gb ISL between each
edge switch and the core switch. Under which circumstance would you need to add a second ISL?

A customer’s switch command line indicates that the status of port 4 is isolated. What is the
problem?
