You have completed installing your FC SAN. When everything is powered on, numerous devices are not available. You need to verify that the devices appear within the FC fabric by accessing the appropriate FC service that provides a list of devices and their respective function.
Which server within the Fibre Channel fabric would be used to do this?
Your company performs a full backup of a database server every Saturday night and incremental nightly backups for each day of the week thereafter. It takes 14 hours to perform a restore from a full backup and averages two hours for each incremental restore. The database server fails on Wednesday at 10:10 AM and needs to be fully restored.
What it is the RTO?
You have twelve 500 GB drives and you need to provide two LUNs using RAID 6 protection for a customer.
What will be the size of each LUN?
You have a new storage array with the following drive types:
1. SAS (6 Gbps)
2. SSD
3. SATA (6 Gbps)
4. FC(4Gbps)
You need to decide which drive type to use based on speed, cost, and drive availability for your Tier 1 storage.
Which type of drive would you choose?
A server has lost half of its paths to its LUN on a storage system. The help desk determines that one of the two HBAs was just replaced. The SAN administrator has modified the zoning with the new WWPN of the replacement HBA port, but the missing paths have still not recovered.
Which action would you perform next?
A company wants to implement a database which requires a storage subsystem with no more than 2 ms write latency and 1 ms read latency.
Which type of drive would you use?
A small business with an IP SAN and NAS storage is experiencing slow response times on the servers which have NAS storage resources.
Which two should the storage administrator monitor to determine the root cause? (Choose two.)
When troubleshooting an issue on a host, you discover that the existing file system partition has been corrupted after you provisioned a LUN to another host connected to the same FC fabric.
What is the cause of this problem?
You have been asked to create a LUN on a storage array that is comprised of 7,200 rpm SATA drives. Each drive is rated at 100 IOPS. The LUN should provide a minimum of 1100 IOPS and withstand multiple drive failures using the least number of drives.
How many drives and which RAID level should you use to create this LUN?
