Exam 7: Designing HPE Hybrid IT Solutions

What is an access port on an Ethernet switch?

A customer just purchased a ProLiant 300 series Gen10 server and wants to install the latest version of Windows. Which feature of this server will assist the customer with the initial Windows installation?

A customer needs NFS access on a Fibre Channel array. What must be included in the solution to meet this requirement?

A customer needs a shared storage solution for a virtualization platform that will host a database application. The customer is considering an HPE Nimble array. Which feature would lead you to propose an HPE Nimble AF40 over an HPE 3PAR All Flash array?

A customer is purchasing a complete HPE solution that includes servers, storage, and networking. They need to leverage cloud storage for an off-site copy of their data in case of disaster. Which HPE solutions should you suggest? (Choose two.)

HPE Support asks you to generate an SSD wear gauge report for local storage on an HPE DL360 Gen10 server running VMware. Which procedure will ensure that the server will boot directly into a maintenance state so you can generate the requested report?

Which protocol should be used to access an exported directory on a network-attached storage device?

You are creating a configuration for a new Nimble HF40 array. Which tool should you use to ensure that you include adequate cache in the configuration?

What is an access port on an Ethernet switch?

A system administrator's performing the BIOS/Platform configuration of a DL380 Gen10 server. You notice the amber health LED. The health status of which solution components can be verified with embedded UEFI Diagnostics? (Choose two.)

What is a primary benefit of DAS?

What is the most important difference between an HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 server and an HPE ProLiant DL385 Gen10 server?

A customer wants an HPE solution to expand a Big Data platform. The company is outgrowing its current setup and expects to consume 1 PB of data in a few months and up to 2 PB of data within a year. Which HPE server platform is best suited for this use case?

Refer to the exhibit. You are asked to review a server configuration for a customer before it is quoted. The server will be used in a business-critical environment and high availability is required. The server configuration is shown in the exhibit. What should be added to the configuration to ensure availability?

A customer has the following requirements: two or more 10Gb SFP+ uplinks downlink ports capable of 1Gb or 10Gb operation over CAT6a or CAT7 cables 24 downlink ports Which HPE tool would you use to help choose an HPE network solution that meets the customer requirements?

Refer to the exhibit. You observed some high temperature alerts on a switch shown in the middle rack of the exhibit. The cooling in the data center is following best practices for the layout in the exhibit. The switch is an HPE 5945 series switch, and all the fans are operating normally. The switch is racked so that its ports face the rear of the rack. The administrator noticed the fan modules have red handles. What should the administrator do to resolve the issue?

A local state college is implementing a new VDI cluster to support computer and testing labs. They have the following requirements: Three VMware ESXi Hosts, each with one AMD processor, 1 TB of RAM, 16 Gbps FC Dual Port HBA. HPE Nimble AF20 with 17 TB usable capacity. Integration into an existing HPE FlexFabric 5710 and HPE SN3000B Fibre Channel SAN switches. The solution must fit in 7U of rack space. If the customer needs more capacity in the future, they will use scale-out growth. Which server model should you recommend to this client?

What does the term composable mean when applied to HPE infrastructure?

A Network administrator connects two switches together with multiple links of the same speed, duplex, and media type. The administrator expected the links to be aggregated, but they are not. The administrator confirmed that the ports are part of the appropriate link aggregation groups and that the permitted VLANs match. Switch A has the lower LACP System Priority. Which LACP operation states describe the failure above?

A security client needs a surveillance solution to support 239 Cameras. They expect to generate 2PB of data and require a 10Gb network infrastructure in a single rack. Which solution should you recommend to meet the customer requirements?
