What is the minimum number of nodes in an Isilon cluster for N+2 protection?

A potential customer uses a solution from an EMC competitor for NFS storage in their main data center. The existing arrays are five years old, and the customer would like to consolidate them into a single new system. The entire workload is generated by eight Linux hosts connected to the arrays that process video files. The customer informs you they are not able to collect performance information from the existing arrays.
Which tools can capture the workload requirements?

Your customer is moving from a Restaurant/Bar business model to a Restaurant/Casino business model. You are helping architect the upgrade of a current 4-node X200 48 TB Isilon cluster, with 50% utilized for their video surveillance operations.
They want to upgrade from 15 FPS (NTSC) in H.264 codec, with a 15 days retention policy to 30 FPS (NTSC) in H.264 codec with a 30 days retention policy.
Which storage capacity would be the best suited to meet the required changes and utilize
65-75% capacity?

How many impact policy levels are available when configuring Isilon jobs?

Your customer is looking for a storage solution that will be able to store seven million 3 MB files, which are written and seldom accessed. Read and write operations are both completed by a web-based application, which requires 1.3 Gbps throughput. The customer's network has not been upgraded in many years, so the network interfaces are
1Gbps.
Which cluster configuration would best meet the customer's requirements?
