SIMULATION
A system administrator is asked to create an iDRAC shared management port using LOM2 and create a failover network using LOM3.
Use the simulator to accomplish this task.
LOM3 in the iDRAC interface, follow these steps:
Step-by-Step Guide:
Access iDRAC Network Settings:
In the iDRAC interface, navigate to the iDRAC Settings tab in the top menu bar. Select Network from the dropdown options to access network configuration settings. Configure the Shared Management Port:
In the Network settings, locate the section for Network Interface or LAN Interface Configuration. Change the NIC Selection to Shared. This will enable the use of a LAN on Motherboard (LOM) port for iDRAC management.
Select LOM2 for the Shared Management Port:
Once you’ve selected Shared, additional options should appear for selecting the specific port. Choose LOM2 as the Shared Management Port. This configures iDRAC to use LOM2 for its primary network connection.
Enable Failover and Select LOM3:
Look for the Failover settings within the same Network Interface configuration.
Enable Failover and select LOM3 as the failover network port. This configuration allows iDRAC to switch to LOM3 automatically if there is an issue with the connection on LOM2.
Save and Apply Settings:
Once you have configured the shared management port and failover settings, click Apply or Save to confirm the configuration.
The iDRAC interface may briefly refresh, and you should receive a confirmation that the settings have
been applied successfully.
Verify Configuration:
After the settings are saved, you can verify that LOM2 is listed as the shared management port and that LOM3 is set as the failover port under Network settings.
By following these steps in the simulator, you should be able to configure iDRAC to use LOM2 for the shared management port and set up a failover network with LOM3. Make sure to save your changes to apply the configuration.
A server has the following configuration:
– 5x 1 TB drives configured in a RAID 5 array
– 1x 1 TB as a global hot spare
– Persistent Hot Spare Slot enabled
A user adds one additional 2 TB drive to the existing array using RAID migration.
How much disk space is available to the operating system?
- A . 5 TB
- B . 6 TB
- C . 7 TB
- D . 8 TB
