An organization plans to deploy a new backup device in their data center. The organization wants the new backup device to support their legacy backup software without requiring any changes to the software. In addition, the organization wants the backup device to provide random data access for better performance.
Which backup device should be recommended?
- A . Virtual tape library
- B . Tape-based backup appliance
- C . Tape library
- D . Optical juke box
When using the erasure coding technique in an object-based storage system, data is divided into 12 data segments and 4 coding segments.
What is the maximum number of disk drive failures against which data is protected by the configuration?
- A . 3
- B . 4
- C . 8
- D . 12
Why is it important for organizations to implement a multi-site remote replication solution?
- A . Ensure data protection is always available if there are any single site failures
- B . Provide consistent near-zero RPO in the event of source and remote site failures
- C . Perform synchronous replication with low network bandwidth
- D . Recover data to any point-in-time in the event of a remote site failure
What occurs when a company’s IT infrastructure security is breached by a passive attack?
- A . data is altered by an unauthorized user
- B . unauthorized system access is obtained
- C . access to services is denied
- D . availability of data is affected
A backup administrator has defined a backup policy. The policy requires full backups to be performed at 9 PM every Sunday and incremental backups performed at 9 PM the remaining days.
If files were accidentally deleted Thursday morning, how many backup copies are required to restore the files?
- A . 3
- B . 5
- C . 4
- D . 2
D
Explanation:
In your scenario, a full backup was performed on Sunday and incremental backups were performed on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. If files were accidentally deleted Thursday morning, you would need two backup copies to restore the files: the full backup from Sunday and the incremental backup from Wednesday. This is because the incremental backup from Wednesday would contain all the changes made since Sunday’s full backup.
Which standard provides lossless transport to an FCoE Ethernet network?
- A . Remote Direct Memory Access
- B . Data Center Bridging Capability Exchange
- C . Priority-based Flow Control
- D . Data Center Bridging
What kind of ML explicitly requires splitting the data into training and testing datasets before running an algorithm against that data?
- A . Deep Learning
- B . Unsupervised Learning
- C . Reinforcement Learning
- D . Supervised Learning
An organization plans to deploy a new application in their environment. The new application requires 2 TB of storage space. During peak workloads, the application is expected to generate 9800 IOPS with a typical I/O size of 4 KB.
The capacity of each available disk drive is 250 GB. The maximum number of IOPS a drive can perform at with 70 percent utilization is 90 IOPS.
What is the minimum number of disk drives needed to meet the application’s capacity and performance requirements given a RAID 0 configuration?
- A . 8
- B . 70
- C . 110
- D . 140
