Question #21

Refer to the exhibit.
A customer has a VMware Horizon View environment with the following characteristics:
✑ One X-Brick XtremIO cluster
✑ 100% read during a boot storm
8K read/writes

What is the maximum recommended number of VDIs the XtremIO cluster can support during a boot storm?
- A1625
- B1833
- C3250
- D5094
Correct Answer:
A
EMC estimates that 150 IOPS per desktop is required in a boot storm. As per table the recommended number of VDIs then is 243,831/ 150, which equals 1625.

Question #23
A customer has a VMware vSphere environment running Native Multipathing (NMP). Which path selection policy should be set for optimal performance when connected to an XtremIO cluster?
- AFixed AP
- BMost Recently Used
- CFixed
- DRound Robin
Correct Answer:
D
Configuring vSphere Native Multipathing.
For best performance, it is recommended to do the following:
Set the native round robin path selection policy on XtremIO volumes presented to the ESX host.

Question #24
A customer is interested in transitioning their traditional infrastructure to the Cloud by implementing ViPR software-defined storage in an XtremIO environment.
Which capabilities will EMC ViPR software-defined storage provide to XtremIO?
Which capabilities will EMC ViPR software-defined storage provide to XtremIO?
- ADelivers SaaS Centralized management and monitoring Chargeback and billing capabilities
- BChargeback reporting capability Centralizes reactive monitoring capability Policy-driven configuration management
- CAutomatically grows storage volumes Slows growth of data Centralized auto-deletes of aging files
- DCreates virtual storage pools Automates disaster recovery Replaces chargeback capabilities
Correct Answer:
A
EMC ViPR Controller is a software-defined storage platform that abstracts, pools and automates a data center's underlying physical storage infrastructure. It provides data center administrators with a single control plane for heterogeneous storage systems.
ViPR enables software-defined data centers by providing features including:
* Comprehensive and customizable platform reporting capabilities that include capacity metering, chargeback, and performance monitoring through the included

Question #25
Based on XtremIO best practice, which byte sector size should be used for volumes hosting Oracle database files?
- A256
- B512
- C1024
- D4096
Correct Answer:
D
Architecting a database on an All Flash Array (AFA) like EMCs XtremIO is best done by reviewing practices to optimize I/O performance. One consideration is the use of Advanced Format and how it impacts the performance of the database Redo logs. Advanced Format refers to a new physical sector size of 4096 bytes
(4KB) replacing original 512 byte standard.
