A customer asks you to architect a new SAN fabric infrastructure comprised of redundant fabrics for a test/dev server environment. They need to provide selective connectivity for array-based snapshots from disk arrays hosted on the existing Cisco MDS 9506 Multilayer director-based production fabric, to hosts on the test/ dev fabric. A customer requirement is to utilize a different vendor for the test/dev fabric. Which SAN technology enables the test/dev SAN fabric to maintain interoperability between the two fabrics and meet the stated requirements?
A. HP B-Series with Transparent Router (TR)
B. HP H-Series with Transparent Router (TR)
C. HP B Series with Inter-VSAN Routing (iVR)
D. HP H-Series with Inter-Fabric Routing (IFR)
A large regional telecommunications company specializing in mobile services has experienced rapid growth.
They currently have 149 million subscribers in 11 markets, including 4 million subscribers locally. The year-onyear data growth between 2003 and 2012 was approximately 15%. The projected growth far 2013 and the next several years is 30% annually.
The proposed mission critical solution needs to work with the existing application modules and deliver a minimum data transfer rate of 6 5 TB per hour and a capacity of 120 TB. Financially, the solution has to offer low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) over the next 5 years, and solution capacity has to accommodate the performance and growth model.
Which mission critical backup solution and support level should you propose? (Select two.)
A. HP StoreOnce 4430 with two upgrade kits
B. HP StoreOnce B6200 with three 48TB expansion kits
C. HP 6-hour call-to-repair support
D. HP same-day hardware support
E. HP 24/7 4-hour response support
A customer has an outdated 4Gb Fibre Channel infrastructure environment that needs to be updated. The customer uses two data centers on a campus with a dual-redundant fabric layout interconnected by customer owned fiber and an evenly-spread port count. The total port count is 86 ports per fabric and is unlikely to increase due to the continuing virtualization of physical servers. The customer is concerned about data security and requires the connections between data centers to be encrypted.
What should you propose to meet the customer requirements?
A. Four HP StoreFabric SN6000B switches
B. Six HP B-Series 8/40 switches
C. Eight HP StoreFabric SN3000B switches
D. Ten HP StoreFabric SN6000 switches

Possible answers:
A large publicly-traded motion picture exhibitor that is a leader in digital and 3D cinema deployments operates 233 theaters and more than 2,200 screens in small to mid-sized communities in 35 states around the United States. They rely on
MS Exchange Server 2010 for email. MS SQL Server 2010 for analyzing data about movies and theater-goers, and MS Excel 2010 for crunching numbers.
The company runs nightly incremental backups and a full weekly backup that consists of close to 7 TB of data which takes up 72 hours to complete. The quarterly backups add an additional 7 TB of data. Tapes are inventoried and transported
from the main data center to the disaster recovery site 150 miles away. The process of transporting tape cartridges to and from the Disaster Recovery site requires hours of daily work.
The company currently relies on an aging robotic tape library and a process that takes the nightly backup tapes offsite every morning. Additionally, the company keeps an inventory, and if a restore is necessary they have to retrieve the tapes
from the DR site and transport them to the main data center site They have a 7 year data retention plan, and the tapes are expensive and not always reliable. Given the company's current system, if a full weekly backup fails over a weekend,
the re-run could take up to 10 hours, even if just one job failed.
The company has deployed a virtualized server infrastructure which runs VMware vSphere 5 on HP BladeSystem c7000 enclosures and BL460c servers interconnected with HP Virtual Connect Flex-10 10Gb Ethernet Modules as well as
several HP ProLiant DL380 servers. The company's top four IT improvements goals are as follows:
-replacing the aging robotic tape library
-enabling replication of backed up data from the main data center to the disaster recovery site (150 miles)
-retaining more backup data in smaller disk space
-increasing efficiency reliability, and ease of system administration Moreover the company's top three business benefit goals are as follows:
-increased confidence in disaster recovery
-minimal disruption by backups during regular business hours
-improved management of external audits
The company has asked that you create multiple solution proposals and prioritize one when you return for a presentation.
During a follow-up meeting with your customer, you learn that there is an additional business requirement to limit the total downtime of data center systems to 72 hours, and no more than 24 hours of data can be lost. The IT department indicates that they have an existing 2-hour response time SLA with their business users for critical systems.
What should you use for their RTO and RPO when designing a new backup solution?
A. RPO - 24
B. RTO - 72
