Designing HP Enterprise Storage Solutions: HP0-J64

Scenario Following the merger of two financial companies, management is considering combining the two distinct customer call centers into a single physical location. In addition to the overall call center headcount increasing by 30%, the support for two distinct customer bases presents the potential of having two different desktop PCs on the desk of each call center employee. Instead of correspondingly increasing IT support headcount to manage the single, larger call center and call center infrastructure, management believes they can reduce the required time to support call center operations by 40% if they employ virtual desktop technology.

An initial assessment has identified the need for a centralized storage solution that could support 500 virtual desktops running a variety of applications that can scale quickly to accommodate an expected increase in call center staff. The customer is already an HP Blade System customer using HP Virtual Connect Flex-10.

Some of the additional business criteria identified in customer planning interviews includes:

Use client virtualization for the desktops.

Achieve the highest possible density and performance for the virtual desktops,but keep the virtual desktop storage traffic off the network due to a current, existing limitation of only 1GbE.

Do not use standalone, network-attached storage.

Limit the impact of additional rack space.

Minimize the risk of additional help-desk tickets.

Present multiple solutions, prioritized with a recommendation.

Refer to the scenario.

The customer is concerned about data migration from their third-party storage array to a new solution. How do you solve this concern.

A. Focus on an HP StoreServ 7000 Storage solution to use the online import from data migration.

B. Advise a new backup and recovery concept using HP StoreOnce Backup Systems to avoid data loss.

C. Present Hyper Visor storage migration functionalities to migrate data online.

D. Include HP Virtual Connect FlexFabric modules in the design to keep all migration paths open.

One proposed solution is based on a Fibre Channel infrastructure using HP BladeSystem Virtual Connect technology and focuses on reducing management complexity when a blade server fails. Which additional customer-related value can you emphasize when implementing this concept in conjunction with an HP 3PAR StoreServ solution?

A. uses Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager to raise storage and management efficiency by establishing unified management

B. maximizes future expandability by introducing scale out storage node increments

C. avoids performance bottlenecks and management complexity by introducing multitenancy

D. reduces capital and operational expenditures by flattening the SAN

A backup design workshop at a customer site identified these business requirements for a solution design:

Backing up a 2 TB file server data

Preferring CIFS targets

Needing six shares to get optimal performance

Integrating with a virtualized environment

Ensuring a one week retention time

Adhering to a minimal budget

Which HP StoreOnce solution should be recommended to the customer?

A. HP StoreOnce 4700

B. HP StoreOnce 4500

C. HP StoreOnce 2700

D. HP StoreOnce VSA
