A server is configured with a RAID 5 Virtual Disk across 5 hard disks and 1 spare disk. If a hard disk failure occurs within the RAID 5 virtual disk, the spare disk needs to be online as quickly as possible. It is acceptable for users to experience decreased performance during the rebuild procedure.
How should this requirement met?
- A . Change cache to Write Through
- B . Select Fast Rebuild
- C . Increase Rebuild Rate
- D . Enable Rebuild Priority
A technician receives a repurposed Dell EMC PowerEdge server. The server already has the OS and the Dell Tools software installed. After racking and cabling the server, the technician attempts to log into the iDRAC but cannot do so.
The default login account has been disabled.
What method can be used to enable the default login account?
- A . SSH into the iDRAC and run the racadm racresetcfg command
- B . Run the racadm racreset command from the host OS
- C . Run the racadm racresetcfg command from the host OS
- D . SSH into the iDRAC and run the racadm racreset command
A technician is configuring a PowerEdge R640 that has two PSUs. The rack in which it is being installed has two power distribution units (PDUs). No high power such as GPUs are required. The user wants as must redundancy protection as possible.
What is the best way to configure the PSUs?
- A . Redundancy Mode set to 2+0 with each PSU power cord connected to a different PDU
- B . Redundancy Mode set to1+1 with both PSU power cords connected to the same PDU
- C . Redundancy Mode set to 1+1 with each PSU power cords connected to a different PDU
- D . Redundancy Mode set to 1+0 with the second PSU stored nearby for quick replacement if the first PSU fails
A technician is working on an operational PowerEdge R640 server that cannot be rebooted. Observing that all drives are hot-swappable devices, the technician decides to remove a drive that has been giving intermittent errors. After the single drive is removed the operating system crashes.
What could have caused the operating system to crash?
- A . iDRAC was not configured for hot-swappable components
- B . System Lockdown mode was enabled, which does not allow any component to be hot-swapped
- C . Drive was part of a RAID 0 virtual disk
- D . PERC was configured to allow a single drive removal

Case Study 5 – Refer to the Exhibit.
Backing up data from a Dell EMC Isilon cluster exceeds the company’s backup window. Because the company has a large amount of data with a continuous high growth rate, they want to change their backup strategy. The Gen 6 Isilon cluster consists of 24 nodes.
Their current backup strategy is an NDMP three-way backup performing weekly full backups to tape and incremental backups each night. The strategy uses Dell EMC Net Worker. The DMA uses Include paths to specify what data to backup. All data on the cluster must remain accessible.
The company’s IT team is now looking for a method to increase the performance of their backups. After some investigation, you notice that the backup job targets two paths. This could be the cause of the lengthy backup times.
What advice should be provided to the team?
- A . Exclude the largest datasets from the backup job
- B . Add A100 Backup Accelerators and configure for two-way NDMP
- C . Create more parallel streams to utilize multi-stream NDMP backups.
- D . Change the backup strategy to token-based backups.
A system administrator, while working with tech support, is asked to check the blinking LEDs on the Dell PowerEdge 16G server.
Where should the administrator look?
- A . On the right control panel
- B . On the system board
- C . On the left control panel
- D . On the front LCD panel
Dell EMC PowerEdge 14G servers support which technology?
- A . iDRAC8
- B . AMD GuardMI
- C . Intel Boot Guard
- D . Quicksync 1.0
