What is a specific configuration guideline that should be followed when configuring Linux hosts to support XtremIO storage?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

When configuring Linux hosts to support XtremIO storage, it is recommended to set the LUN queue depth to 64. This setting helps to optimize the performance of the host when communicating with the XtremIO storage system.

Access Host Configuration: Log into the Linux host that will be connected to the XtremIO storage.

Modify HBA Parameters: Locate the HBA (Host Bus Adapter) parameters within the host's configuration files.

Set Queue Depth: Adjust the queue depth parameter for the HBA to 64. This can typically be done by editing the options.conf file or similar, depending on the HBA driver in use.

Apply Changes: Save the changes and reload the HBA driver or reboot the host to apply the new configuration.

Verify Configuration: Confirm that the new queue depth setting is active and functioning as expected.

I'm just gonna go with C and hope the examiner doesn't ask me to explain what a LUN is. That's a can of worms I'm not ready to open.

A sounds like the right choice. I mean, who doesn't love a good execution throttle set to 35025?

Assigning LUN 0 to the boot LUN seems like a necessary step as well, to ensure proper configuration for XtremIO storage.

D is the answer, clearly. Assigning LUN 0 to the boot LUN is a must-do for any XtremIO setup.
