Dell EMC Exam D-XTR-OE-A-24 Topic 2 Question 17 Discussion

Actual exam question for Dell EMC's D-XTR-OE-A-24 exam

Question #: 17
Topic #: 2

A systems administrator is responsible for the operations of 20 XtremlO X1 clusters; each are using a standalone XMS server. The administrator wants to consolidate management operations to the minimum number of XMS servers as possible.

What is the smallest number of XMS servers that can support the environment?

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

A single XtremIO Management Server (XMS) can manage up to 8 X-Brick clusters.

For 20 XtremIO X1 clusters, the smallest number of XMS servers required to support the environment is 4.

Consolidating management operations to the minimum number of XMS servers helps in simplifying administration and monitoring tasks.

Hold up, are we talking about actual servers or some kind of alien technology? I'm so confused right now...

I bet the administrator is wishing they had a TARDIS to manage all those servers. Time Lord technology would make this a breeze!

I'm going with A, 2 servers. That way, if one goes down, the other can keep things running. Simple and efficient, that's my style.

That makes sense, but wouldn't consolidating to just 2 servers be more efficient?

B, 4 servers seems like the safest bet. You can never have too much redundancy, am I right? Better safe than sorry!

D, of course! 1 XMS server to rule them all! It's the future, we don't need all this redundancy. #YOLOserver

Hmm, I'd say the answer is C. 3 XMS servers can definitely handle 20 XtremlO X1 clusters, no need for more than that.

I agree with you, C seems like the right choice. 3 XMS servers should be sufficient for the task.

I disagree, I believe the answer is C) 3 because each cluster needs at least one XMS server.
