A database administrator (DBA) is complaining of slow write performance to a storage array. The DBA would like to have access to real-time performance reporting of the storage array to correlate array performance with database performance.
Following SNIA Storage Security Best Current Practices, what should you do while limiting administrative complexity?
Click the Exhibit button.
Referring to the exhibit, which backup type is represented?
You determine that throughput between a server and an FC storage array is lower than expected.
Your privileges only allow you to change the configuration of the HBA on the server.
Which configuration setting can you change to increase throughput?
Which type of storage replication is required, at a minimum, for a non-critical application?
What is a common protocol used in cloud communications?
You receive a ticket from a database group which is complaining about slow access to storage on only one particular server, as compared to other servers in an active-active cluster. You verify zoning and LUN masking which are fine. On the FC switch, you verify link speed, errors, and throughput for the FC switch ports used by this server. There are no errors on the ports and the link speed is the same as on the switch ports used by other servers in the cluster. You notice that on one port on the FC switch used by this server, that there is no throughput at all.
What is causing the problem?
You have been hired as a consultant to help resolve boot-from-SAN server reboots. The company has hosts, storage devices, and tape drives in the same zones. A large number of RSCNs are generated during the backup window.
What is the cause of the problem?
A data center has an existing three tiered storage solution consisting of enterprise, nearline, and tape. Each storage tier has available expansion capacity. A new mission-critical application is being developed that will require 4TBs of extremely low latency enterprise storage. The new application will be hosted on clustered servers. Cost is not a factor.
Which solution will meet the requirements?
You need to merge two existing FC fabrics. After connecting the ISL to join the fabrics, numerous switches segment.
What should be done to prevent the segmentation?

The customer configuration shown in the exhibit is not meeting the throughput needs of a newly installed application. The application's I/O profile consists of 100% 4 kilobyte reads and all servers require a sustained bandwidth of 150 MBps.
Which location within the configuration presents a performance bottleneck?
