List of questions
Question 1

What is the maximum supported PowerStore volume size in TB?
64
123
256
512
Question 2

What does setting the alert threshold to 0 (zero) do when configuring replication rules?
Disables all alerts for any missed RPO cycles.
Generates an alert if the data saved during the RPO cycle exceeds 20% of the storage object capacity
Enables alerts if the RPO cycle was missed for three consecutive cycles.
Generates an alert if the synchronization time exceeds the RPO.
Here's a breakdown of how the alert threshold works in PowerStore replication:
RPO (Recovery Point Objective): The RPO defines the maximum acceptable amount of data loss in case of a disaster. It essentially determines how often data is replicated. For example, an RPO of 1 hour means you're willing to lose up to 1 hour's worth of data.
Alert Threshold: This setting allows you to control when PowerStore generates an alert if replication isn't meeting the defined RPO. It's the amount of time the system waits before raising an alert when a replication session fails to meet the RPO.
Threshold 0: When you set the alert threshold to 0, it means that PowerStore will immediately generate an alert if the synchronization time for a replication session takes longer than the RPO. This provides immediate notification of potential issues with replication performance or network connectivity.
Why other options are incorrect:
A . Disables all alerts for any missed RPO cycles: This is incorrect. Setting the threshold to 0 actually makes the system more sensitive to missed RPOs.
B . Generates an alert if the data saved during the RPO cycle exceeds 20% of the storage object capacity: This is not related to the alert threshold setting.
C . Enables alerts if the RPO cycle was missed for three consecutive cycles: The alert threshold doesn't have a built-in mechanism for consecutive missed cycles. It triggers an alert based on the synchronization time exceeding the RPO.
By setting the alert threshold to 0, you ensure that you're immediately notified of any replication delays, allowing you to take corrective action to prevent potential data loss.
Question 3

multipath -n
multipath -m
multipath -l
multipath -p
Question 4

Question 5

Which network is used for storage migration between PowerStore T appliances?
Cluster
Management
vMotion
Storage
Question 6

Which two statements are true regarding host group configurations? (Choose two.)
Allows mixed protocol type hosts within the same host group.
Maps volumes to all hosts in the host group.
Allows mapping volumes to individual hosts in the host group.
Volume-related operations are made across all hosts in the group.
Operations like snapshots, replication, or volume resizing affect all hosts in the group because the volume is shared across them. This ensures consistency and simplifies management in clustered or shared-storage environments.
Question 7

Which two statements are true of PowerStore File Migration import? (Choose two.)
PS arrays are supported with PowerPath.
Both SMB and NFS are supported, but cannot be mixed.
VNX2 arrays are supported with VDM.
Snapshots and snapshot schedules are migrated
The source file system can be a replica.
Question 8

What is the maximum supported PowerStore file system size in TB?
512
64
256
128
Question 9

Which two pieces of information are required to create a new remote system connection? (Choose two.)
IP address of local system
Network Latency
IP address of remote system
Remote PowerStore name
Remote domain name
In the Add Remote System slide-out panel, configure the following fields:
- Remote system type - Select PowerStore.
- Management IP address
- Description (optional)
- Network latency
