How does configuring Storage Pools in PowerFlex impact system performance?
Correct Answer: B
Question 2
An administrator wants to migrate a volume from one storage pool to another storage pool. What two volume migrations are possible? (Select 2)
Correct Answer: B,D
Volume migration in PowerFlex allows for the movement of volumes between storage pools, which can be necessary for various operational reasons such as performance tuning, capacity expansion, or infrastructure upgrades. The possible migrations are: Option B: Migrating from an MG (Medium Granularity) storage pool volume that is zero padded and thick provisioned to an FG (Fine Granularity) storage pool volume that is also zero padded and thin provisioned. This migration is possible and allows for a change in the provisioning and granularity of the volume, which can be beneficial for optimizing storage efficiency and performance1. Option D: Migrating from an MG storage pool volume that is non-zero padded and thin provisioned to another MG storage pool volume that is zero padded and thin provisioned. This migration is within the same granularity type (MG) and involves changing the padding of the volume. It is a viable option when adjusting the volume configuration for specific storage optimization needs1. These migrations are supported by PowerFlex's flexible architecture, which allows for non-disruptive volume movements between storage pools. The process involves using PowerFlex's management tools to initiate and monitor the migration, ensuring data integrity and system stability throughout the operation1. The references for these migrations come from PowerFlex documentation and best practices, which detail the procedures and capabilities of the system regarding volume management and migration1. It is important to follow the recommended guidelines to ensure successful migrations that align with the system's design and operational principles.
Question 3
Which deployment model allows for flexible scaling of compute and storage resources independently?
Correct Answer: A
Question 4
A customer in a large enterprise environment is planning to deploy hundreds of internally supported third-party nodes over the next six months What PowerFlex platform must be used for this deployment?
Correct Answer: D
Question 5
What is the maximum number of SDSs per protection domain of the PowerFlex rack?
Correct Answer: B
The maximum number of Storage Data Servers (SDSs) per protection domain in a PowerFlex rack is 1283. This is specified in the PowerFlex specification sheet and ensures that each protection domain can provide data protection for a significant number of SDSs, allowing for scalability and resilience within the PowerFlex infrastructure.
