A storage administrator has an Isilon cluster consisting of 20 nodes. The nodes have identical hardware and are members of a single node pool. All files are being protected at N+2d:1n.
What is the largest file that can be written in a single stripe on this cluster?
- A . 1024 KB
- B . 2048 KB
- C . 2304 KB
- D . 2560 KB
Upon review of an existing Isilon cluster, a storage administrator discovers that the cluster is in compliance mode. However, some files are beyond their maximum retention period but are not out of the WORM state.
How can this condition be explained?
- A . Compliance clock is out of sync with the system clock due to downtime and has not yet caught up
- B . Files do not age out of compliance and the WORM state cannot be modified once written
- C . Files were never updated to free up space
- D . Users specified shorter individual retention periods than the directory configurations
In an Isilon environment, which physical configuration will enable the internal failover network?
- A . Both int-a and int-b of each node in the cluster must be physically connected to separate switches.
- B . Both int-a and int-b ports of each node in the cluster must be physically connected to one switch.
- C . Only int-a ports of each node in the cluster must be physically connected to one switch.
- D . Only int-b ports of each node in the cluster must be physically connected to one switch.
What is an advantage of using MTrees in a Data Domain system?
- A . Allows selective data encryption
- B . Segregates management and replication traffic
- C . Allows for management of quotas separately
- D . Data from different MTrees are not deduplicated against each other
You are configuring a five-node Isilon cluster with high-density, NL-Series nodes. You want to minimize protection overhead and preserve the required MTTDL requirements.
Which protection level is most appropriate for this type of cluster?
- A . 2X
- B . N+1n
- C . N+2n
- D . N+2d:1n
Which deduplication phase is excluded from the Dry Run process?
- A . Commonality Detection
- B . Sharing
- C . Sampling
- D . Index Updating
An Isilon administrator was unsuccessful when adding a new node to an existing Isilon cluster using the Nodes LCD panel.
What is a possible cause?
- A . Internal join mode has been set to ‘secure’
- B . Internal join mode has been set to ‘manual’
- C . Nodes can only be added through the console port
- D . Nodes can only be added through the web administration interface
A Dell PowerScale administrator needs to secure data access with an appropriate Kerberos-based authentication provider in a non-System zone. The configuration requires balancing connections across the IP address pool.
What should be configured?
- A . Access zones only
- B . SmartConnect zones and access zones
- C . SmartConnect zones only
- D . SmartConnect zones and SmartConnect zone aliases
