Question #16
Based on XtremIO Data Protection, how many dedicated hot spare disks per X-Brick are required?
- A0
- B1
- C2
- D3
Correct Answer:
A
XtremIO Data Protection (XDP) doesnt require any configuration, nor does it need hot spare drives. Insteadit uses "hot spaces" free space in the array.

Question #17
When using XtremIO storage with Solaris (SPARC), what is the EMC recommended I/O size that will deliver sequential I/O more efficiently to XtremIO?
- A1 MB
- B2 MB
- C4 MB
- D8 MB
Correct Answer:
C
EMC recommended setting for Solaris include that the /etc/system file be modified to include the following parameter:
* Set maximum IO size
set maxphys = 0x400000
This also requires increase of the maximum I/O size for the disk driver. The corresponding entry and file for this change are different for different Solaris versions, as follows:
For Solaris 10 (SPARC):
File: /kernel/drv/ssd.conf -
Setting: ssd_max_xfer_size=0x400000;
For Solaris 10 (x86):
File: /kernel/drv/sd.conf -
Setting: sd_max_xfer_size=0x400000;
Etc.

Question #19
Which operation is performed when an XtremIO Snapshot is created?
- APointers to the ancestor metadata are created for the snapshot
- BSpace equal to the size of the ancestor is allocated to the snapshot
- CA reserved space is created for new snapshot data
- DA deduplication pass is immediately run against the snapshot
Correct Answer:
A
When a snap is created, the following steps occur:
1) Two empty containers are created in-memory
2) Snapshot SCSI personality is pointing to the new snapshot sub-node
3) The SCSI personality which the host is using, is linked to the second node in the internal data tree

- AHTTP POST
- BHTTP PATCH
- CHTTP LINK
- DHTTP PUT
Correct Answer:
