A customer is evaluating an HPE 3PAR StoreServ system in a proof-of-concept project. The customer wants to receive emails about important storage system events and alerts.
What feature do you need to configure?
- A . HPE OneView integration
- B . Secure Service Agent
- C . Real-time Alert Processing
- D . Local Notification Service
D
Explanation:
To receive emails about important storage system events and alerts in an HPE 3PAR StoreServ system, the Local Notification Service (LNS) needs to be configured. LNS allows administrators to set up email notifications for various events and alerts, ensuring that they are promptly informed of any critical issues that may arise. This feature is essential for maintaining the health and performance of the storage system by enabling proactive management. For more information, refer to:

Your customer has asked you to add their new HPE Alletra 9000 array to HPE SSMC.
What should be your next step?
- A . Ensure WEB API is enabled, then add the system via SSMC Admin Console
- B . Run "setysys ssmc 1" command to initialize the feature
- C . Order HPE SSMC LTU to unlock the Ul
- D . Tell them the HPE Alletra 9000 does not support SSMC
D
Explanation:
The HPE Alletra 9000 does not support HPE SSMC (StoreServ Management Console). Instead, it is managed through other tools designed for the Alletra series, such as HPE Alletra’s web-based UI or HPE Data Services Cloud Console. These tools offer a modern, cloud-native management experience, which is different from the traditional SSMC used for other HPE storage platforms like 3PAR.

A customer has a 3PAR storeserv with FC and SSD drives who would like to improve the performance for random reads.
Which 3PAR Storeserve feature would provide better read performance?
- A . Adaptive Flash Cache
- B . Deduplication
- C . Smart Cache
- D . Express Layout
A
Explanation:
Adaptive Flash Cache (AFC) is a feature in HPE 3PAR StoreServ arrays that improves performance for random reads by using flash storage as an extended cache. This feature is especially beneficial for workloads with high random read activity, as it accelerates read operations by storing frequently accessed data in the flash cache, reducing latency and improving overall performance.

HPE Storage Performance Features
A customer recently acquired another company and found that the existing infrastructure was outdated and costly to maintain. They need to put a complete infrastructure solution in place that minimizes the footprint in the data center as quickly and possible.
Which solution you recommend?
- A . Simplicity 380
- B . Bladesystem 7000
- C . Converged systems
- D . Synergy 12000
A
Explanation:
The SimpliVity 380 is the recommended solution for a customer who has acquired another company with an outdated and costly infrastructure. This hyper-converged infrastructure solution minimizes the footprint in the data center by combining compute, storage, and networking into a single, integrated system. SimpliVity 380 offers quick deployment, simplified management, and reduced operational costs, making it ideal for modernizing IT environments rapidly and efficiently. HPE Storage

Which storage sizing tool, designed specifically for the HPE 3PAR StoreServ environment, shows the expected deduplication ratio based on actual data analysis of the customer’s current environment?
- A . NinjaCrawler
- B . StoreVista
- C . NinjaThin
- D . NinjaStars
A
Explanation:
NinjaCrawler is a storage sizing tool specifically designed for the HPE 3PAR StoreServ environment. It analyzes the customer’s current data and provides insights into the expected deduplication ratio based on actual data patterns. This tool is crucial for accurately sizing storage solutions and optimizing capacity planning in environments that utilize deduplication features.

How does HPE GreenLake for Block Storage perform write operations caching?
- A . Data is buffered in NVDIMM
- B . Data is cached on DFC-hosted SSDs
- C . Data goes directly to space based on NVMe
- D . Data is stored in supercapacitor-protected RAM
B
Explanation:
HPE GreenLake for Block Storage performs write operations caching by caching the data on DFC-hosted SSDs. The Data Fabric Controller (DFC) manages the SSDs and is responsible for optimizing the performance of the storage system by caching write operations. This approach ensures that write-intensive workloads are handled efficiently, providing lower latency and higher throughput for applications that demand fast storage performance.

A customer’s growing environment has a mix of HPE 3PAR StoreServ 8200 with 10K HDD, HPE 3PAR StoreServ 9450, and HPE 3PAR StoreServ 2080D with 3 tiers of storage deployed in the same data center.
The customer needs to optimize performance by being able to move workloads to the most appropriate array as needed.
Which solution enables the customer to achieve this goal?
- A . HPE OneView to automate cpg migration based on user defined policies.
- B . HPE 3PAR Remote Copy in a Synchronous Long Distance topology.
- C . HPE Smart SAN to provide autonomic federated management.
- D . HPE 3PAR Peer Motion with SSMC to manage storage federation.
D
Explanation:
HPE 3PAR Peer Motion, combined with the SSMC (StoreServ Management Console), is the optimal solution for a customer who needs to move workloads between different HPE 3PAR StoreServ arrays within the same data center. Peer Motion allows for seamless and non-disruptive data migration across different arrays, enabling the customer to optimize performance by moving workloads to the most appropriate storage tier or array as needed. This capability ensures that the storage environment remains flexible and responsive to changing performance demands.

A customer successfully implemented an HPE Primera solution.
Which tool can be used to verify performance counters, such as IOPS, match customer requirements?
- A . NinjaCrawler
- B . OneView
- C . Recovery Manager Central
- D . Primera on-node management GUI
D
Explanation:
After implementing an HPE Primera solution, the most appropriate tool to verify performance counters such as IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second) is the Primera on-node management GUI. This GUI provides real-time monitoring and detailed performance analytics directly from the Primera storage system itself. It allows users to track various performance metrics and ensure they align with the customer’s requirements.
