NEW QUESTION NO: 6
An IBM mainframe client has IBM DS8886 CKD storage installed. The customer has decided to use another new IBM DS8886 and use IBM Metro Mirror to provide a synchronous redundant copy of the data.
Which additional IBM software enables non-disruptive failover in the event of a storage hardware failure?
A. IBM Remote Pair FlashCopy
B. IBM Global Mirror
C. IBM High performance FICON
D. IBM HyperSwap
Answer: D
Explanation/Reference:
You can create an IBM HyperSwap topology system configuration where each I/O group in the system is physically on a different site. When used with active-active relationships to create HyperSwap volumes, these configurations can be used to maintain access to data on the system when power failures or site- wide outages occur.

Which IBM XIV replication feature provides the ability for a remote target volume to be initialized without requiring the contents of the source volume to be re-replicated over an inter-site link?
A. Offline Initialization
B. Quick Initialization
C. Synchronous Replication
D. Asynchronous Replication
Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
When an XIV mirror coupling is first activated, all actual data on the source is either copied to the destination (normal initialization) or verified to be on the destination, and only changed data is copied (offline initialization). This process is referred to as initialization.

NEW QUESTION NO: 8
A customer wants to replace its legacy block storage environment with a new IBM FlashSystem A9000R solution and is concerned about properly estimating consolidated storage capacity after deduplication and compression savings.
Which tool should be used?
A. IBM Comprestimator
B. IBM Storage Tier Advisor Tool
C. IBM Data Reduction Estimator Tool
D. Capacity Magic
Answer: C
Explanation/Reference:
Data Reduction Estimator tool is a command-line host-based utility for estimating the data reduction saving on block devices.
In order to help with the profiling and analysis of existing user workloads that need to be migrated to a new system, IBM provides a highly accurate data reduction estimation tool which supports both deduplication and compression. The tool operates by scanning target workloads on any legacy storage array (IBM or 3rd party) and then merging all scan results to provide an integrated system level data reduction estimate.

NEW QUESTION NO: 11
A cloud service provider is looking to provide a scalable solution that provides quality of service capabilities, ease of management, deduplication, and integration with OpenStack and VMware while providing sub-millisecond response time.
Which solution should the technical specialist recommend?
A. IBM Storwize V5010
B. IBM FlashSystem 900
C. IBM FlashSystem A9000R
D. IBM Spectrum Scale
Answer: C
Explanation/Reference:
IBM FlashSystem A9000 can use the well-established IBM code base for OpenStack and REST API support.
IBM Spectrum Control Base V3.0 allows a simplified deployment and efficient integration of IBM FlashSystem A9000 with the VMware vCloud suite.
The FlashSystem A9000R data reduction node implements data deduplication and compression functions.
A9000 provides consistent and predictable microsecond response times and simplicity that you need.

How are key management services provided for the IBM DS8886 storage system?
A. SKLM
B. Blockchain
C. Full disk encryption
D. Non-repudiation system
Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
Full Disk Encryption (FDE) drive sets are used with key management services that are provided by IBM Security Key Lifecycle Manager (SKLM) software or Gemalto SafeNet KeySecure to allow encryption for data-at-rest on a DS8880.

NEW QUESTION NO: 13
A customer has existing SAP HANA production nodes connected to an IBM Elastic Storage Server (ESS).
The customer needs to scale out additional ESS nodes to maintain the high I/O throughput requirement.
Which type of nodes should be proposed?
A. Storage nodes with SAS drives
B. Storage nodes with SSD drives
C. Protocol nodes with SAS drives
D. Protocol nodes with SSD drives
Answer: B
Explanation/Reference:
A scale-out NAS system is comprised of multiple NAS storage nodes with internal or external storage.
Each NAS storage node represents the same file systems to user applications. Data is stored across all NAS storage nodes, and adding capacity can be achieved by adding more storage nodes.

NEW QUESTION NO: 16
A customer needs to import and export volumes between IBM Spectrum Virtualize clusters that are geographically separated.
How can this be accomplished?
A. Create image mode volumes
B. Snapshots with Transparent Cloud Tiering
C. Implement IBM Spectrum Archive
D. Utilize tiering-to-tape media
Answer: B
Explanation/Reference:
Transparent cloud tiering is a licensed function that enables volume data to be copied and transferred to cloud storage. The system supports creating connections to cloud service providers to store copies of volume data in private or public cloud storage.
With transparent cloud tiering, administrators can move older data to cloud storage to free up capacity on the system. Point-in-time snapshots of data can be created on the system and then copied and stored on the cloud storage.
