Question #331
Why are organizations moving towards a modern data center implementation?
- A . Develop modern applications in the public cloud without having the right skill set in-house.
- B . Ability to be agile, operate in real time, and develop intelligent products.
- C . Deploy only unified and converged IT resources to reduce the management complexity.
- D . Reduce the cost of managing data center components by using a self-service catalog.
Correct Answer: B
Question #332
What is a function of the FC-1 layer of the Fibre Channel (FC) protocol stack?
- A . Defines data encoding
- B . Provides FC addressing
- C . Defines the physical interface
- D . Maps upper layer protocols to FC layers
Correct Answer: A
Question #333
How does an iSCSI initiator discover its targets?
- A . Initiator sends a query to an iSNS server for a list of available targets
- B . Initiator receives the iSCSI names of its targets from the primary DNS server
- C . Initiator uses the data center bridging exchange protocol for the discovery
- D . Initiator sends SCSI commands and the target responds by sending its name
Correct Answer: A
Question #334
Refer to the Exhibit:
Identify the following FC Frame fields:
- A . 1CRC 2: Data field 3: Frame header
- B . 1: Frame header 2: Data field 3CRC
- C . 1CRC 2: Frame header 3: Data field
- D . 1: Frame header 2CRC 3: Data field
Correct Answer: B
B
Explanation:
https://www.mycloudwiki.com/san/fc-san-protocols/
an FC frame consists of five parts: start of frame (SOF), frame header, data field, cyclic redundancy check (CRC), and end of frame (EOF). The SOF and EOF act as delimiters. The frame header is 24 bytes long and contains addressing information for the frame.

Question #335
Which network performance attribute is achieved when using flow control in FOP?
- A . In-order packet delivery
- B . IP network congestion detection and handling
- C . Eliminate IP packet fragmentation
- D . IP packet collision detection and handling
Correct Answer: A
A
Explanation:
Flow control in FOP (File-Oriented Protocol) is a network performance attribute that ensures that packets are delivered in the same order they were sent. This is achieved by assigning each packet a sequence number, and then having the receiver send an acknowledgment back to the sender that it has received the packet and is ready for the next one. This helps to ensure that packets are not lost, and that they arrive in the same order they were sent.

Which cloud computing characteristic enables consumers to use cloud services on heterogeneous thin or thick client platforms?
- A . Resource pooling
- B . High availability
- C . On-demand self-service
- D . Broad network access
Correct Answer: D
Question #337
Which NAS implementation requires separate management of the NAS head and the storage?
- A . Gateway
- B . Scale-out
- C . Unified
- D . Integrated
Correct Answer: A
Question #338
What is a function of a Fibre Channel Forwarder in an FCoE SAN?
- A . Applies zoning configurations and provides fabric services
- B . Transfers FCoE traffic over an FC SAN
- C . Encapsulates IP packets into FC frames
- D . Provides both NIC and FC HBA functionality
Correct Answer: A
Question #339
What does using a service-focused approach provide to managing the storage infrastructure?
- A . Determines the optimal amount of storage space needed in a backup storage system
- B . Provides hardware-specific management tasks that are automated
- C . Determines the appropriate workflow upon receiving a service provisioning request
- D . Provides detailed information on configuration, connectivity, and component interrelationships
Correct Answer: C
Question #340
What is an accurate statement about VLANs and VSANs in an FCoE environment with an existing FC SAN?
- A . A dedicated VLAN must be configured for each VSAN
- B . VLANs configured for VSANs must carry regular LAN traffic
- C . Default VLAN must map to all VSANs defined in the FCoE switch
- D . A minimum of four VLANs must be created to isolate VSAN traffic
Correct Answer: A
