A customer is standing up a new 30x17TB FlashBlade system.
The customer’s environment is as follows:
1.The upstream switches are located 50 feet away
2.The upstream switches have the required number of 100Gb/s interfaces.
3.The customer is conscious about data availability.
4.The customer requires the use of 4 LAGs
What is the minimum number of cables required?
A developer of a business-critical application is concerned about system reliability when it comes to a IO resistance. An architect needs to explain the FlashBlade write mechanism and address three main concerns:
-Data location when FlashBlade acknowledge a write
-Number of created data copies before FlashBlade acknowledges a write
-Blade failure resilience
When does write acknowledgement happen?
What must an architect do to delete a filesystem?
A customer is a heavy Windows user and generally uses SMB for everything, including backups. The customer wants to refresh the storage used within their backup environment. The customer is using Commvault for the backup software.

A customer practices agile development, and they are having performance issues with builds of the most actively developed software suite as they attempt additional concurrent builds. What is causing the issue?
A customer has an existing Flashblade with 13x52TB blades in a single-chassis configuration and needs more capacity for a new application coming online in the next few weeks. The architect has determined they need an additional four blades.
How many additional rack units are required to accommodate the new blades?
A customer is adding snapshot policies so that some file systems can be tiered based on importance to the business.
-1 file system with high priority
-3 file systems with medium priority
-2 file systems with low priority
How many snapshot policies does the customer need to protect all of their file systems?
A customer provides a diagram and reports no complaints about backup completion times. The customer is concerned about the complexity of the environment.
What is the illustrated pain point?
What is the maximum file size that is supported by the FlashBlade?
A FlashBlade is designed with a properly implemented single 4x40Gb/s LAG.
During implementation, the architect is informed that the ISL on the uplink switches in broken. The customer has no budget to repair or replace it. What should the architect do?
A customer wants to leverage FlashBlade to create a DataHub. Which set of applications will co-exist on a FlashBlade DataHub?
