Exam 2: HPE Storage Solutions

You have chosen to utilize HPE 3PAR synchronous replication in order to meet the customer stated requirement of RPO=0. What is a key consideration you need to explain to the customer?

You are helping guide your customer through the HPE GreenLake delivery process. Is this a factor that can push out the date when services will be up and running? Solution: The solution was quoted through the HPE GreenLake Quick Quote tool.

Is this an appropriate use case for HPE GreenLake? Solution: A CEO is unsure if the company is receiving real value from its IT budget.

A customer has recently acquired another company that is located less than 3 km from their current main location. Both locations use HPE B-Series products in their storage environment. The customer needs to merge the 2 locations together while still using the current WAN and networking infrastructure at both locations. They need to keep their initial cost down until they are able to redesign both networking infrastructures. Which protocol should be incorporated when providing a proposal to meet the customer needs?

A customer has some questions about the first invoice for an HPE GreenLake solution. Is this information you should explain? Solution: The invoice will include the committed capacity cost even before HPE has set up metering.

Is this a correct statement about HPE GreenLake workload templates? Solution: The Private Cloud template can be a good fit for customers using offerings such Microsoft Azure Stack.

A customer needs a data recovery solution for their HPE 3PAR array. They have the following requirements: RPO needs to be within three hours RTO needs to be within three hours There is no need for offsite data archive They will have a limited maintenance window Which solution meets all of the customer needs?

You are starting an assessment to design a new multi-storage environment for a customer. You have collected data on all the current arrays using SAF collector. What should be the next step in your design process?

A customer requests a proposal for two HPE 3PAR arrays using asynchronous periodic replication. The customer has two data centers, and the current bandwidth available for replication between the data centers is 200 Mb/s. The customer is replicating 30TB, and the change rate is 3% in 24 hours. The customer wants to achieve an RPO of 10 minutes. Which statement about bandwidth and replication is true for the customer requirements?

Is this statement true? Solution: HPE GreenLake Quick Quote tool benefits outputs are more accurate than calculations from the Excel Business Case Tool.

A customer needs to new storage solution, including replication. The replication solution does not need to provide an RTO or RPO of zero. The customer suffers from severe VM sprawl and has experienced unidentified storage service-level degradations. What should you point out during your presentation of the solution?

Is this how you should approach a customer who makes purchasing decisions using total cost of ownership (TCO)? Solution: Explain the consistent pricing of HPE GreenLake and the control it offers for Finance and Procurement to ensure IT is spending wisely.

A customer has standardized on Windows Server. They need to ensure that application and storage will move between sites as one during automated or manual failover. Which HPE 3PAR integrated solution should you recommend to the customer as a preventative measure?

A customer wants to implement a disaster recovery plan for their current HPE 3PAR array data. They have obtained a remote site 10km away their primary site. They have performed bandwidth testing, and have confirmed their RTT is approximately 100ms. The customer needs to provide data replication to assure the best data availability they can achieve. Which synchronization method meets their needs?
