A customer need to server 40TB via file protocols including SMB and FTP to a board range of client operating system in one location .security protocol dictate that data must be encrypted with FIPS 140-2 compliance.
Which HPE storage solution you recommend?
- A . HPE MSA 2052 storage with HPE StoreEasy 3850 Gateway
- B . HPE 3PAR 8200 using self-encrypting drive with 3PAR file persona
- C . HPE StoreOnce 5500with data in fight encryption.
- D . HPE XP7 storage with encryption ready disk adapters
B
Explanation:
For a customer needing to serve 40TB of data via file protocols such as SMB and FTP while ensuring FIPS 140-2 compliance, the best solution is HPE 3PAR 8200 with self-encrypting drives (SEDs) combined with 3PAR File Persona. The self-encrypting drives ensure that data at rest is encrypted to meet FIPS 140-2 compliance, while the 3PAR File Persona enables file services directly from the 3PAR storage system, supporting SMB, FTP, and other protocols natively. This combination provides secure, high-performance file storage that meets regulatory requirements.

Refer to the exhibit.
You are designing a new Primera solution and demonstrating performance numbers to the customer. The customer reviews the configuration and requests a change to the configuration that will increase Random Write IOPS.
Which action will satisfy the customer request?
- A . Add more disks of smaller capacity
- B . Upgrade the HPE Primera base model
- C . Change to larger SSDs
- D . Add more FC Ports
A
Explanation:
In the scenario presented, the customer requests an increase in Random Write IOPS for their HPE Primera solution. To achieve this, adding more disks of smaller capacity is the most effective approach (Option A). By increasing the number of disks, the storage system can distribute the write operations across more disks, thereby reducing the write latency and improving the overall Random Write IOPS performance. Smaller capacity disks typically allow for better IOPS performance per GB due to their higher spindle speed and lower data density, which reduces seek times.
This strategy also aligns with best practices in storage design, where increasing the number of spindles (disks) generally enhances the performance of random workloads, particularly in write-intensive environments.

You are planning a single-site Nimble solution with iSCSI connectivity. Two 10GbE SFP+ dual port NICS are included in the configuration. You designed an intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF) stack with HPE FlexFabric 5900CP switches.
Which statements is correct when discussing the IRF limits for this configuration?
- A . When connecting an iSCSI storage to an IRF stack, a minimum of four 10GbE ports must be used perswitch.
- B . A maximum of two switches can be used in an IRF stack when connecting storage.
- C . In an IRF stack with storage connectivity, the 40GbE ports cannot be used.
- D . The used IRF ports for iSCSI traffic have to be configured as 10GbE converged ports.
B
Explanation:
In a Nimble solution with iSCSI connectivity using an Intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF) stack with HPE FlexFabric 5900CP switches, there is a limitation on the number of switches that can be used in the IRF stack when connecting storage. Specifically, a maximum of two switches can be included in the IRF stack to ensure optimal performance and reliability when managing iSCSI traffic. This configuration ensures that the storage network maintains high availability and efficient data handling without overcomplicating the stack.

A customer has completely virtualized their datacenter with VMware. You propose a SimpliVity solution to replace their aging hardware.
Which SimpliVity features should you emphasize in your presentation? (Choose two.)
- A . It uses native hypervisor management tools for management
- B . It utilizes the Storage Management Utility for management and monitoring
- C . It utilizes a unified ASIC for performance
- D . It includes deduplication and backup capabilities
- E . It provides S3 file access
A,D
Explanation:
When proposing a SimpliVity solution for a customer who has fully virtualized their datacenter with VMware, it is essential to highlight the features that will offer the most value in a virtualized environment.
Native Hypervisor Management Tools: SimpliVity integrates seamlessly with existing hypervisor management tools, such as VMware vCenter, allowing customers to manage their virtualized infrastructure using familiar interfaces. This integration simplifies operations and reduces the learning curve for IT staff.
Deduplication and Backup Capabilities: SimpliVity’s built-in data efficiency features, including inline deduplication, compression, and optimization, significantly reduce the amount of data stored and transferred. This results in cost savings and improved backup performance, which are critical in a virtualized environment where storage efficiency is paramount.
These features directly address the needs of a virtualized datacenter, providing enhanced data protection, simplified management, and improved performance.

A customer currently runs MSA 2040 SAS storage system with SFF drives. They are planning a hardware refresh. The customer is using virtual pools only, and is concerned about problematic data Migration to the new platform.
How can the update to MSA2050 be performed?
- A . Peer migration license must be purchased for the online migration
- B . Peer migration license must be purchased for the offline migration
- C . Existing drives can be moved to the new system; both systems need to be online
- D . Existing drives can be moved to the new system; both systems need to be offline
D
Explanation:
When upgrading from an MSA 2040 to an MSA 2050, the customer can physically move the existing SFF drives to the new MSA 2050 system. However, both systems need to be offline during the process to ensure data integrity and a smooth migration. This approach is efficient for customers using virtual pools, as it allows them to transition to the new hardware without complex data migration processes.
