Your customer wants to implement a high availability connection on their hosts to the local storage. They have implemented a multi-vendor firmware issues. The current configuration is as follows: Microsoft Windows Server 2008 hosts with 1 QLogic HBA and 1 Emulex HBA Fabric A contains a Brocade 4/24 port switch. Fabric B contains a Cisco 9216 with 4 Gb fabric card. Brocade 1606 routers connect their disaster recovery site. What is required for heterogeneous implementation?
An existing EVA customer is preparing to deploy HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000 Storage. The customer previously purchased a par of MPX200 blades for a project, but the blades were never deployed. The customer wants to migrate data online and require LUN by LUN control because infrequently used data will be left on the EVA. Synchronization must be maintained between the EVA and 3PAR LUNs until all a particular host are migrated. Which solution will meet the customer requirements?
You are creating and implementation plan with the system engineers for a newly designed infrastructure solution using HP StoreVirtual 4330 Storage width VMware vSphere. The proposed backup strategy includes HP Data Protector using the VMware vStorage API for Data Protection on a native Windows 2008 R2 host. An HP StoreEver MSL4048 Tape Library is directly attached to the backup server. Which statement is true about this implementation plan?
A large customer has a SAN infrastructure with six HP 8/40 SAN switches in each redundant fabric. To accommodate growing workload's and expected growth on the SAN, the customer wants to replace their switches. They also want to reduce associated costs for power, cooling, and management. The IT Director wants additional capabilities for monitoring and alerting in the new environment. Which SAN infrastructure solution should you recommend in your proposal?
A broadcasting company has an aged Fibre Channel-based storage networking infrastructure. They have three EMC CX-series arrays, each with 50 TB, two HP EVA 8100, each with 80 TB. They want to update their environments with two new HP 3PAR StoreServ 7400 arrays. Due to their availability requirements, complexity, and the need to avoid downtime for applications, the company would like to implement online migration using only proposal. Which solution should you recommend to the customer?
A fast-growing company is planning an acquisition that will add significantly to their customer base and their data center workload. Environment with 1 Gb Ethernet and 8 Gb Fibre Channel networks in place. They are open to new technologies and are willing to reduce cost-effective over time. Which infrastructure purchases should you include in your proposal?
You are designing an iSCSI-bases storage solution for a customer that wishes to utility obligation to ensure that the data going across the SAN network is secure. Which proposal
