Case Study 3
A financial services company has file sharing workflows and 2000 home directories which include 70% Microsoft Windows and 30% Linux. The Security team is also interested in credit card usage data analytics such as point of sale, geolocation, and authorization and transaction data. Home directories and file shares do not require D@RE or SEC compliance.
However, due to the sensitivity of the credit card data, the company requires D@RE for credit card information and must adhere to the U.S. SEC 17a-4(f) compliance standards. Additionally, they are interested in auditing user access and anti-virus features.
The compute and storage environment consists of the following:
– 200 TB of Fibre Channel drives on NetApp ONTAP 7
– Environment is expected to grow 200 TB over the next three years
In order to remove the encryption key on the SED drives, which steps are required?
- A . SmartFail the cluster and then remove the drive
- B . Suspend the cluster and then SmartFail the drive
- C . SmartFail and then remove the drive
- D . Suspend the node and then remove the drive
Which server security feature verifies the cryptographic signatures of the UEFI driver in Dell EMC PowerEdge 14G and 15G servers?
- A . Secure Boot
- B . iDRAC Credential Vault
- C . Enterprise Key Management
- D . TPM
A technician needs to view the health status of the server and components.
Which Dell management tool should the technician install in the OS?
- A . Open Manage Server Administrator
- B . Open Manage Integrations
- C . Open Manage Health Status
- D . Open Manage PowerEdge Components
Case Study 4
A company is experiencing a noticeable decrease in performance when accessing data purpose file shares. In addition, a file pool policy moves data that has not been modified for the slow data access.
The number of users accessing the cluster has not changed. The administrator has shared the following baseline metrics. The outputs were captured from a performance-acceptable time frame.
Trace route shows:
– 3 hops between clients and the cluster
– Average latency is 3 ms
Iperf shows:
– 940 Mb/s average bandwidth
– 005 ms average jitter
Netstat on the local network shows:
– 05% average re-transmission rate
Hostcache list:
– 20 ms average roundtrip time across all clients
The administrator shows you the following output from the netstat command:
– 32366653 data packets (35556615947 bytes)
– 8010 data packets (9525723 bytes) re-transmitted
Based on the output, what information should be provided to the administrator?
- A . Re-transmission rates have no impact on performance
- B . Re-transmission rate exceeds recommendations
- C . Re-transmission rate is in the acceptable range
- D . Change in the re-transmission rate indicates an issue
While working on a Dell EMC PowerEdge R640 server, a technician accidently removes two fans at the same time.
What should happen to the server?
- A . Remaining fans increase RPM to compensate for the removed fans
LCD changes to amber and displays an error message
Server stays operational - B . Remaining fans stay at the recommended RPM
iDRAC slows down the speed of the CPUs to avoid a temperature increase
LCD changes to blue but an alert would have been sent out - C . Remaining fans increase RPM to compensate for the removed fans
LCD changes to amber and displays an error message
Server performs a controlled shutdown - D . Remaining fans increase RPM to compensate for the removed fans
LCD changes to blue and displays an error description
Server performs a controlled shutdown
