HP HP ExpertONE Certification HP0-J64 Questions & Answers

• Question 81:

  A very large application service provider (ASP) is going through a major virtualization effort. After the initial meeting with the ASP team, your notes are:

  -Customer objective is to virtualize their environment. Modernize and simplify their infrastructure

  - All servers are on HP BladeSystem c7000 Virtual Connect 1/10-F and Virtual Connect FC modules, G5 physical blade servers. Lease is up.

  -48 blades require virtualization and NFS connections. Existing filer is third party Lease is up to Need more I/O and Scale.

  - 12 blades are Clustered SQL Server. No virtualization on these blades required. Storage today is on new FC-based HP 3PAR StoreServ 7400

  -16 new virtualized servers are targeted to be connected to the existing HP 3PAR StoreServ 7400 FC

  As you develop a proposal, what should be part of the design to meet the customer goals? (Select two)

  A. Add an HP StoreEasy X3830 Gateway rackmount server to the front end of the 3PAR

  B. Add an HP StoreEasy X5000 rackmount server to the front end of the 3PAR

  C. Add new Hp BladeSystem c700s and Gen8 blades with Virtual Connect Flex 10

  D. Add new Hp BladeSystem c700s and Gen8 blades with HP Virtual Connect Flex Fabric.

  Correct Answer: AD

  Storage today is on new FC-base HP 3PAR StoreServ 7400 FC HP Virtual Connect FlexFabric: HP Virtual Connect FlexFabric 10Gb/24-port Modules are the simplest, most converged and flexible way to connect virtualized server blades to any data or storage network. VC FlexFabric modules eliminate up to 95% of network sprawl at the server edge with one device that converges traffic inside enclosures and directly connects to LANs and SANs. http://h20195.www2.hp.com/V2/GetPDF.aspx/4AA1-0311ENW.pdf

  HP Virtual Connect Flex-10 Simplify and make your data center change-ready. The HP Virtual Connect Flex-10 10Gb Ethernet Module for c-Class BladeSystem allows administrators to fine-tune network bandwidth at the server edge by dividing each 10 Gb network connection into four independent physical FlexNIC server connections. Each FlexNIC can be configured from 100 Mb up to 10 Gb, allowing just the right amount of network bandwidth based on your application needs.

  In client virilization environments, up to 80% of network traffic is server-to-server and server-to- storage. Legacy, multi-tier, fibre-channel network architectures require a complex web of network cards, interconnects, cables, and switches to

  keep pace with this changing traffic. This approach creates performance bottlenecks and drives higher costs and complexity to build, maintain, and secure at scale.

  To address this problem HP announced HP Virtual Connect for 3PAR with FLAT SAN technolocv. the industry's first direct connection to fibre channel-based storage that does not require dedicated switches. This technology provides a

  simplified architecture with best-h-class storage and network innovations such as BladeSystem Virtual Connect, and the HP 3PAR StoreServ.

  Customer benefits include these features:

  Single layer fibre channel storage network eliminates SAN switches and Host Bus Adapters (HBAs)

  -Massive simplification of fabric management

  -2.5x faster fibre channel storage provisioning

  -50% less infrastructure costs

  -Automated zoning capabilities to set up zones with one-click

  -Up to 55% less latency by removing the SAN fabric layer

  Failover manager

  A failover manager is a special edition of a manager. Instead of running on a storage node, the failover manager runs as a virtual appliance. A failover manager only function is maintaining quorum. When designing a SAN spanning two sites,

  running a failover manager is recommended, The optimum placement of the failover manager is a third site. Place an even amount of managers in both sites and run the failover manager at an independent site.
