A customer has a requirement for a new solution to handle their growing storage requirements. The
solution should have the ability to cover storage needs for the next three years. The environment
consists of 100 TBs of file system data spread across five file systems. On average, the file systems
grow 1 TB a month. In addition, they have a large VMware cluster supporting 200 VMs and a highly
transactional database.
The customer wants the solution to offer good performance, scalability, manageability, and be cost-
effective. The sales team is looking to you to recommend a solution.
Which recommendation will meet the customers requirements?
A
How much space is consumed by a 4 KB file when the file data is written to the Isilon cluster?
B
Which type of infrastructure does the Isilon scalable appliance connect to on the front-end?
A
A customer needs to consolidate 300 TB of home directory servers and shared file systems used by
development and test groups. A key requirement is to prevent the systems from consuming all free
capacity and impacting home directory content.
Which Isilon node configuration should be proposed?
A
You are helping a customer create a cost-effective Isilon solution. The customer environment
includes high IOPS-intensive, random access file-based applications.
Which Isilon storage node type will meet the customer's needs?
A
How many layers are in the Isilon clustering architecture?
B
Which node type provides CPU, memory, and Fibre Channel connectivity?
A
Which Isilon OneFS job, that runs manually, is responsible for examining the entire file system for
inconsistencies?
A
A customer has a supported cluster with the maximum protection level. How many simultaneous
node component failures can Isilon OneFS sustain while still allowing full access to the entire file
system and dataset?
D
A customer wants an N+3 protection level on their cluster. What is the minimum number of nodes
they need to achieve that level of protection?
