[All D-RP-DY-A-24 Questions]

A storage administrator wants to implement a new RecoverPoint with VNX(SE) cluster using virtual RPAs in their VMware environment. The administrator wants to ensure

the highest availability for all communication within the cluster.

What is the recommended number of virtual switches required for this type of configuration?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

For ensuring the highest availability for all communication within a RecoverPoint with VNX(SE) cluster using virtual RPAs in a VMware environment, it is recommended to use at least 2 virtual switches. This setup allows for redundancy and load balancing, which are crucial for maintaining high availability and preventing single points of failure.

I'd say C) 3 is the way to go. Any less and it's like playing Russian Roulette with your data. Any more and you're just showing off, am I right?

2 switches? Are you kidding me? This is a mission-critical RecoverPoint cluster, not a lemonade stand! Definitely gotta go with the 4 switches.

I'm going with D) 4. Gotta be safe and redundant, you know? Can't have any single points of failure in a high-availability setup like this.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. Shouldn't we need 4 virtual switches to ensure the highest availability? One for each type of traffic.

I think the answer is C) 3. You need separate switches for management, replication, and failover, right?
