SIMULATION
A storage administrator needs to group Volume-1 and Volume-2 for consistency. The group should have a snapshot every day that is retained for 25 hours.
Use the simulator to make this configuration change.
When you have finished continue to the next question.
1. Open the simulator and log in with the default credentials: admin/Password123#.
2. SelectStorage>Volumesfrom the left menu.
3. SelectVolume-1andVolume-2from the list of volumes and clickGroup.
4. Enter a name for the volume group, such asConsistent-Group, and clickCreate.
5. SelectProtection>Protection Policiesfrom the left menu.
6. Click+ CREATEto launch the Create Protection Policy wizard.
7. Enter a name for the protection policy, such asDaily-Snapshot, and clickNext.
8. Click+ CREATEto create a new snapshot rule for the policy.
9. Enter a name for the snapshot rule, such asDaily-Rule, and clickNext.
10. SelectAll Daysfor the days to run the rule andTime of dayfor the frequency. Enter00:00as the start time and clickNext.
11. Enter25as the retention hours and clickNext.
12. Review the summary and clickFinishto create the snapshot rule.
13. ClickNextto continue the protection policy wizard.
14. Review the summary and clickFinishto create the protection policy.
15. SelectStorage>Volume Groupsfrom the left menu.
16. SelectConsistent-Groupfrom the list of volume groups and clickEdit.
17. ClickProtection Policyand selectDaily-Snapshotfrom the drop-down list. ClickSave.
18. The volume group is now configured with a protection policy that creates a snapshot every day at 00:00 and retains it for 25 hours.
Which two NAS servers must be configured with DNS support? (Choose two.)
B . Servers that are joined to Active Directory:
DNS is required for resolving domain controllers' names when NAS servers are joined to an Active Directory domain. Proper DNS support ensures seamless integration and authentication within the domain.
D . Servers that are used for Multiprotocol access:
Multiprotocol access allows both SMB (CIFS) and NFS clients to access the same NAS server. DNS is essential for name resolution, especially in environments where SMB relies on domain-based configurations.
SIMULATION
You're absolutely right! I apologize for my previous response. I can definitely try to extract the text from the image.
Here's the "Task" as written in the image:
A storage administrator must provision local storage resources for his database as per the below requirements:
Create a new "Database" storage resource as a capacity of 5TB
PowerStore under load must prioritize this workload
ESXi host called "ESXi3" is using iSCSI connectivity
The ESXi host must use the LUN number of 101
Use the simulator to make this configuration change.
1. Create the Host
Navigate to Compute > Hosts.
Click Add Host.
Enter the host name: ESXi3
Select iSCSI as the protocol.
Click Next.
Select the appropriate Network and Port Group for iSCSI connectivity.
Click Add.
2. Create the Volume
Navigate to Storage > Volumes.
Click Add Volume.
Enter the volume name: SQL_Datastore
Set the volume size to 5 TB.
Important: Under 'Advanced Settings,' locate the 'Performance' section and set the Workload Type to Database. This will prioritize the volume's performance for database operations.
Click Add.
3. Map the Volume to the Host
On the Volumes page, locate the newly created SQL_Datastore volume.
Click the More Actions button (three vertical dots) and select Map to Host.
Choose the ESXi3 host.
Important: In the 'LUN ID' field, enter 101 to assign the desired LUN number.
Click Map.
Verification
After completing these steps, go back to the Hosts page and select ESXi3.
Click the Volumes tab to confirm that the SQL_Datastore volume is mapped to the host with the correct LUN ID (101).
Key Considerations
iSCSI Network Configuration: Ensure that your iSCSI network is properly configured with the necessary VLANs and IP addresses.
Host Connectivity: Make sure that the ESXi3 host has the correct iSCSI initiator configuration to connect to the PowerStore appliance.
By following these steps, you'll successfully provision the local storage resources for the database on your new ESXi host, meeting all the specified requirements.
SIMULATION
create an SMB NAS server in the PowerStore simulator using the provided information.
Here's the information that is given:
NAS and SMB computer name: payrollserver
Network Interface: BaseEnclosure-bond1
IP address: 192.168.2.20
Subnet: /24
Gateway: 192.168.2.254
VLAN: 1504
AD/DNS: 192.168.2.50
Windows domain name: company.com
Domain administrator credentials: (presumably Administrator/password)
1. Navigate to NAS Servers
Go to Compute > NAS Servers.
Click Add NAS Server.
2. Configure NAS Server Settings
NAS Server Name: Enter payrollserver.
Network Interface: Select BaseEnclosure-bond1.
IP Address: Enter 192.168.2.20.
Subnet: Enter /24.
Gateway: Enter 192.168.2.254.
VLAN: Enter 1504.
AD/DNS: Enter 192.168.2.50.
Windows domain name: Enter company.com.
Domain administrator credentials: Enter Administrator for the username and password for the password.
3. Add the NAS Server
Click Add.
Verification
After the NAS server is created, you can verify its configuration on the NAS Servers page. Check that all the settings are correct.
Key Considerations
Network Connectivity: Ensure that the network interface (BaseEnclosure-bond1) is properly configured and connected to the network with the specified VLAN.
Active Directory Integration: The provided domain administrator credentials will be used to join the NAS server to the Active Directory domain. Make sure these credentials are valid.
DNS Resolution: The AD/DNS server IP address (192.168.2.50) should be reachable from the PowerStore appliance for proper name resolution.
By following these steps, you'll successfully create an SMB NAS server with the specified configuration in the PowerStore simulator.
An administrator removes a volume from an existing volume group which is part of replication. The system generates an error stating that it cannot create a replication session for the volume.
Why does removing the volume generate an error message?
