You want to use FCAP authentication in an environment with FOS 7.3 running switches with no extra licenses. What should you do to use this feature?

A customer wants to enable an automated failover for their two existing HPE 3PAR solutions, which are located in two different sites. Each solution has an All-inclusive Single-System Software license. Which component is required to enable this function?

An HPE partner is creating an HPE GreenLake SOW for the customer to sign. Does this correctly describe the SOW pass-thru terms? Solution: Partners can negotiate these terms with HPE.

Is an HPE partner responsible for completing this task in the HPE GreenLake sales process? Solution: Ensure customer agreement to a multi-year term of at least three years for the HPE GreenLake services.

Does this correctly describe service components of a custom HPE GreenLake solution? Solution: The solution includes installation services.

Which advantage is provided by HPE 3PAR Remote Copy across all replication modes?

A customer needs to upgrade their existing HPE 3PAR environment. They ask you to present a solution to gather data from all 200 of their HPE 3PARs arrays, which are spread across the globe. The arrays consist of various generations and OS levels, and they are managed by regional instances of SSMC. What should you present to the customer as a solution?

A customer has two HPE Nimble arrays that are replication partners. The replication schedule is set to every hour. After replication completed at 1:00pm, the array at the primary site suffers a power failure. Applications were failed over successfully by the administrators, and production continued on the secondary site array as designed. At 3:00pm, the power was restored to the primary site array. What does the administrator need to do first to restore services in the primary site?

A customer purchased a custom HPE GreenLake solution last year. The customer tells you the company is starting a new pilot project and is concerned about running out of capacity. Current utilization peaks at around 88 percent, but is usually lower. Is this part of the process that you should complete to meet the customer's changing needs?
