Actual exam question for Dell EMC's D-RP-DY-A-24 exam

Question #: 11
Topic #: 3

During the write phase of RecoverPoint replication, when does the RPA send an acknowledgement back to the write splitter?

AAs soon as the RPA receives the write

BAfter the distribution phase has completed

CAfter the RPA has received an acknowledgement from all copies involved with replication

DAfter the local RPA has received an acknowledgement from the remote RPA

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

In the write phase of RecoverPoint replication, the write splitter intercepts write data from the production host and sends it to the RecoverPoint Appliance (RPA).

The RPA then immediately acknowledges receipt of the write data to the write splitter1.

This acknowledgement occurs as soon as the RPA receives the write, which is before the distribution phase or any acknowledgements from other copies involved in the replication process1.

The prompt acknowledgement allows the write splitter to continue processing other writes, ensuring efficient replication and system performance1.

For detailed information on the write phase and the role of the RPA and write splitter in RecoverPoint replication, it is advisable to consult the official Dell RecoverPoint documentation or contact Dell EMC support.

I bet the exam writers are really hoping we all just guess randomly on this one. Hey, if in doubt, go with option C - 'after the RPA has received an acknowledgement from all copies involved with replication'. Sounds legit, right?

Ah, the age-old question of when the RPA sends that all-important acknowledgement. I'm going to have to go with option D on this one. It just seems the most logical flow of the replication process.

Option B has got to be the right answer. Why would the RPA send an acknowledgement before the distribution phase is complete? That doesn't make sense to me.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. The write phase seems pretty straightforward, but I'm wondering if there's some tricky nuance I'm missing. Option C sounds plausible, but I'll have to think it through more carefully.

I think option D is the correct answer. The RPA sends an acknowledgement back to the write splitter after it has received an acknowledgement from the remote RPA, ensuring all copies have been replicated successfully.

Haha, I bet the answer is 'all of the above' and the real question is, 'When does the RPA send an acknowledgement back to the write splitter...while doing a handstand?'

D makes the most sense to me. The local RPA has to wait for the remote RPA to confirm the write before it can acknowledge the write splitter.
