Your customer is moving from a Restaurant/Bar business model to a Restaurant/Casino business model. You are helping architect the upgrade of a current 4-node X200 48 TB Isilon cluster, with 65% utilized for their video surveillance operations.
They wish to achieve the following:
Upgrade from 1280 x 720 resolution, with a 15 days retention policy, to 2048 x 1536 resolution with a 30 days retention policy.
What is the minimum number of nodes of the same type will you need to add in order to meet the required changes and not exceed 70% raw capacity?
During an NDMP backup restore using ShallowCopy, a version check fails.
Which restore option should you switch to?
Your customer's site uses an old X-Series cluster, and they are interested in consolidating their two primary workflows. iostat shows that one of the applications is sensitive to latency, while isi statistics indicates sensitivity to disk response times. There are approximately 1000 users accessing 70 TB of file data.
Which node type would you recommend?
You are asked to size a cluster for a file sharing environment. nfsstat indicates that no more than
10% of the requests are namespace operations (e.g. GETADDR, SETADDR). There will be 10,000 active Linux users, connecting over NFS.
Which cluster configuration would you recommend?
