E20-555 Exam Question 181

Your customer manages a print media environment, consisting of three Isilon clusters, which are out of support. The customer would like to have access to new software releases and feature sets. You have been asked to perform a full discovery of the customer's environment.
The customer's current Isilon clusters are as follows:
"Cust" (12 x 12000X) serves as upload media storage for different tenants.
"Working" (8 x 12000X + 6 x X200) serves as a working zone for extraction to RAW and printing media from it.
"Archive" (16 x 72NL + Accelerator nodes) is used to store printed content for six months.
The customer operates in a Windows environment using SMB 2.0, two DNS servers per AD forest, three forest domains which are servicing three different environments. All servers are operating on a 1Gb network, three VLANs segregating the DEV/QA/PROD environments. Currently, there is no monitoring in place for performance measurement or optimization.
The requirements for this solution include:
-Better ROI and TCO -Maintain same performance with possible improvements -Renew HW/SW and get inclusive support -Limit migrations -Reduce space, power, cooling consumption -Get new feature sets -If migration required, use Parallel copy (multiple nodes, multiple threads, multiple connections) -Segregate tenant shares from other tenants -Expand up to 1PB of total storage
What would you recommend be done to consolidate the three clusters into one?

    You have 1000 users for an application that reads and writes files averaging between one and four MB in size.
    Each user requires 24 MB of RAM. You want to add another 1000 users for this application, and in preparation for them, you run the isi statistics command. You discover that the average CPU utilization is 20%; aggregate throughput averages 700 MB/s and the disk QueueD average is 1.5. Your cluster currently has five X200 (12 GB RAM, 1 TB drive) nodes, uses N+2:1 protection and 1 GigE networking.
    What should you do to accommodate the next 1000 users?

    Refer to the exhibit.

    You want to add redundancy to your network configuration, rather than performance. You have configured all interfaces into the default SmartConnect zone.
    How should you configure the switches and Isilon networking to provide your desired network redundancy?
