75-90%

Question 3

How can zero-window backup assist a customer in reducing the time taken to recover volumes, applications, or files?

Options:

A.

The customer will simply uncompress the data on disk that was previously compressed by SVM.

B.

The customer can recover from recently taken PiTs that are on disk rather than the last tape backup.

C.

The customer can recover from tape images on a virtual tape library managed by SVM.

D.

The customer can move the data back from a disaster recovery site using IP.

Question 4

What are two expenses in an operating (OPEX) budget? (Choose two.)

Options:

A.

replacing existing hardware

B.

undepreciated assets

C.

salaries

D.

benefits

Question 5

What is used to guarantee the consistency of an application snapshot that spans multiple volumes?

Options:

A.

Consistency Volumes

B.

Consistency Groups

C.

Consistency Snapshots

D.

Consistency Association

Question 6

How can SVM's centralized management provide better performance?

Options:

A.

by allocating capacity across RAID arrays

B.

by striping volumes across RAID arrays

C.

by mirroring volumes across RAID arrays

D.

by provisioning additional servers

Question 7

The hourly cost of organization-wide downtime can be calculated for each client using which method?

Options:

A.

(yearly revenue) divided by (number of business days in a year multiplied by the number of business hours in a day)

B.

(yearly revenue) divided by (number of employees multiplied by the number of business hours in a day)

C.

(yearly revenue) divided by (duration of outage multiplied by employee hourly wage)

D.

each industry has a fixed rate that is unique

Question 8

A customer seeks the financial return (ROI) of multiView. What are two benefits that the customer can expect from this solution? (Choose two.)

Options:

A.

Using redirect-on-write and multiView, applications can be restored very quickly.

B.

Using copy-on-write and multiView, applications can be restored very quickly.

C.

Low capacity snapshots will reduce CAPEX by eliminating redundant copies.

D.

Low capacity snapshots will reduce CAPEX by reducing hardware footprint.

Question 9

A customer must be absolutely certain that there will be no performance impact of multiView snapshots on a key financial database. How can multiView and multiCopy be used together to satisfy the customer's requirement?

Options:

A.

multiView can be used to take a PiT copy. Additional PiTs can then be taken off the first PiT for test and development.

B.

multiCopy can be used to copy the database to another storage array. multiView can then be used to take low capacity PiTs of the copy for test and development.

C.

multiCopy will create a steady stream of data to a copy area. multiView can then be used to take PiTs whenever they are required for test and development.

D.

MultiView can be set to only read the PiT data when the volume is not in use. Requests for PiTs for test and development can therefore be queued.

Question 10

What are three business benefits that multiView and multiCopy can introduce into a SAN environment? (Choose three.)

Options:

A.

cost effective disaster recovery

B.

reduced down time by enabling testing of OS and application releases

C.

any-to-any quick copy of data for performance test and development

D.

tiered storage architecture

E.

TCO reduced by using less disk storage

Question 11

Which three will yield economic benefits derived from the combination of server and storage virtualization? (Choose three.)

Options:

A.

Improve asset utilization.

B.

Improve the performance of DAS.

C.

Improve operational efficiency by shrinking backup times by up to 80%.

D.

Improve the connectivity of the SAN infrastructure.

E.

Improve productivity by managing three times more storage and two times more servers per administrator.

Question 12

SVM's multiView can provide protection for which three failure scenarios? (Choose three.)

Options:

A.

database corruption

B.

file deletion

C.

site failure

D.

RAID failure

E.

e-mail virus

Question 13

The customer has a disaster recovery site 200 miles (320 km) from their primary data center. What is the largest expense of this disaster recovery schema?

Options:

A.

the target storage devices

B.

the Fibre Channel to IP converters

C.

the communications links/bandwidth

D.

the disaster recovery test mechanism

Question 14

Which mid-range storage system has the ability to perform virtualization-type functions and supports solid state drives across the entire mid-range product line?

Options:

A.

LeftHand NSM

B.

HDS USP-VM

C.

EMC Clariion

D.

NetApp V-Series

Question 15

Which three ways can the use of SVMs zero-window backup technology result in financial benefits for a customer? (Choose three.)

Options:

A.

SVM integrates with backup software as a Virtual Tape Library (VTL).

B.

SVM reduces the need for backup clients.

C.

SVM allows fast, no-data-movement rollback of applications.

D.

SVM writes directly to a tape library eliminating the need for backup software.

E.

SVM allows a closer recovery point than the previous night's tape.

Question 16

Which statement describes tiered storage?

Options:

A.

An infrastructure designed to lower the overall cost of storage by placing volumes on "fit for purpose" storage based on defined cost, availability, and performance requirements.

B.

An infrastructure designed to place data on the storage devices that have the lowest price per megabyte ratio.

C.

An infrastructure designed to place data on different storage devices to ensure a heterogeneous model.

D.

An infrastructure designed to place data on different storage devices to ensure a homogeneous model.

Question 17

When considering a snapshot strategy, the differences between copy-on-write (COW) and redirect-on-write (ROW) are very distinct. What are two differences? (Choose two.)

Options:

A.

ROW is RAID controller-based and works on all industry-standard arrays.

B.

A heavily loaded array using COW will impact performance across all attached servers.

C.

ROW writes the new data to the snapshot directly, eliminating one or more write processes.

D.

COW provides consistency of data across different platforms.

Question 18

A customer is considering creating a remote disaster recovery site 2500 miles (4000 km) away. They are considering multiMirror sync and async modes. Why should they choose async mode?

Options:

A.

Async mirroring always uses FC verses IP for better performance.

B.

Async mirroring can span long distances without performance loss.

C.

Async mirroring was designed for server-to-server or disk-to-disk mirroring.
