An administrator is asked to create a 5532 GiB volume from the volume group.

Referring to the exhibit, how would the administrator complete this request?

  1. Create the volume after performing space reclamation
  2. Create the volume after consolidating the capacity
  3. Create the volume from the available capacity
  4. Create the volume after adjusting the preservation capacity

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Review the Available Capacity: According to the exhibit, the volume group has a total of 17820.00 GiB capacity, out of which 5532.00 GiB is the current free capacity. However, it is split into two free capacity areas of 15120.00 GiB and 2412.00 GiB.
Identify the Challenge: The requested volume of 5532 GiB cannot be created directly from the current free capacity because it is not contiguous; it's split into two separate areas. Consolidate the Capacity: To create the volume, the administrator needs to consolidate the free capacity. This involves merging the non-contiguous free spaces to form a contiguous space large enough for the 5532 GiB volume.
Procedure for Consolidation:
Access the volume group management settings.
Select the option to consolidate free capacity areas. Follow the prompts to merge the two free capacity areas into a single contiguous space.

Create the Volume: Once the free capacity is consolidated, proceed to create the 5532 GiB volume from the newly formed contiguous free space.

Which two steps are required to enable multifactor authentication on an E-Series system? (Choose two.)

  1. Test SSO login
  2. Configure In-Band Management
  3. Map roles
  4. Configure LDAP

Answer(s): C,D

Explanation:

To enable multifactor authentication (MFA) on an E-Series system, follow these steps:
Map roles (C): Role mapping is necessary to define the permissions and access levels for different users when MFA is enabled. This ensures that only authorized users can access specific functions and data on the system.
Configure LDAP (D): LDAP configuration is required for integrating with directory services to manage user authentication and access control. LDAP settings need to be correctly configured to support MFA, allowing the system to authenticate users against an external directory service.

You ordered a NetApp E2812 Duplex 16GB 10 GbE Base-T system.

Referring to the exhibit, what is the maximum number of 10GbE Base-T ports available to be used?

  1. 8
  2. 4
  3. 6
  4. 12

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The exhibit shows the supported adapter cards for the E2812 system with specific marketing part numbers.
The E2812 system ordered is a Duplex 16Gb 10GbE Base-T system with the adapter card part number X-56023-00-0E-C, which is described as "HIC.E2800.10Gb Base-T.2-ports, -C".

Each card provides 2 ports.
Given that the system is duplex, it means it has two controllers, each capable of supporting one card. Therefore, each controller can have one 10GbE Base-T card with 2 ports, resulting in a maximum of 4 ports available in total for the system.

A customer has launched a data analytics initiative and has been transferring old data into the new data lake. The customer has discovered some data read errors during the transfer process.

In this scenario, how should the customer have avoided these data integrity issues?

  1. by ensuring that data assurance and media scan are always activated
  2. by deploying secure-capable drives
  3. by turning on cyclic redundancy checks (CRCs)
  4. by turning on erasure coding

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Data integrity issues can often be prevented by ensuring that mechanisms for data assurance and media scanning are activated.
Data Assurance (DA) is a feature that verifies the integrity of the data as it is read from or written to the storage system, detecting and correcting errors. Media scan is a background process that checks the entire disk surface for errors and corrects any found before they cause data integrity issues.
Together, these features ensure ongoing data integrity by preemptively identifying and fixing potential issues.
