Refer to the exhibit.
Your customer has three different clusters. File systems on two of the clusters are at 90% full, and the largest cluster is 10% full. Active data resides on the largest cluster. The customer has five different node types totaling 2PB and 54 nodes. Nodes from left to right are as shown:
1.X200
2.12000X
3.36000X
4.NL108
5.108NL
They have a Smartpool license and believe that tiering data would help free up needed space.
After talking with the customer and explaining the use of SmartPools, how would you recommend optimizing utilization across all of the nodes that the customer owns?
A potential customer has about 540TB of NetApp running in ONTAP 7-Mode. They are willing to let you gather some workload dat
a. They have LDAP and Active Directory authentication and primarily Windows Clients. They are very interested in Automated Tiering and Large Scale Archives. They are not certain about the workflows from the Marketing Department. The Content Team will only say they need to acquire 300 TB within 90 days. They do not know the average file size or the number of aggregates they are managing.
Which tools would you use to gather information to do your Isilon sizing?
What is the recommended namespace path for the access zone on a new Isilon cluster with SyncIQ license?
You have had several discussions with your customer in the processor design industry. They have stated that they want a Scale-Out NAS platform for their design environment. Their most significant responses were "We have 125 design engineers accessing large diagrams and we need high throughput to support them. Can we also get the highest performance available? We need to stay ahead of our competitors." Other areas you discussed were their data retention policies and workflow after the chip design is completed. They plan to archive the design files but the files must stay on line.
What is your initial node recommendation?
On an Isilon Gen 6 Cluster with 4 nodes and N+2d:1n protection, how much storage would a 64 KB file
consume?
