EMC D-ISM-FN-01 Actual Questions

Intelligent storage systems incorporate advanced features like automated tiering, deduplication, and compression. These features enable efficient storage utilization and optimized management by automating data placement and reducing manual intervention.

Option A: While intelligent systems may facilitate cloud integration, they do not guarantee cost-free migration.

Option B: Data reduction features help, but the primary advantage is broader efficiency and optimization.

Option C: Creating silos increases complexity; intelligent systems aim to unify and simplify storage management.

To calculate the MTBF, we need to determine the total operational time and the number of failures.

Total operational time (Monday to Friday):5 days × 24 hours = 120 hours

Number of failures:3 (Tuesday, Thursday, Friday)

MTBF = Total operational time / Number of failures

MTBF = 120 hours / 3 = 40 hours

The exhibit shows a Fibre Channel (FC) switch connected to another FC switch. The port "X" is used for inter-switch link (ISL) connectivity, which is characteristic of anE_port (Expansion Port).

F_port (Fabric port):Connects an N_port (host or storage device) to a switch.

N_port (Node port):End device port in FC networks (like HBA in hosts or storage).

NL_port (Node Loop port):Used for Arbitrated Loop topologies.

E_port:Connects two FC switches together for ISL, which is exactly what's shown in the exhibit.

Astorage nodeis a component in a backup architecture that handles the actualdata movementduring the backup process:

Itorganizesthe backup data stream.

Itwritesthe data to the backup target (disk, tape, or cloud).

It does not manage policies or schedules (that’s the role of the backup server or management console).

Option A:Monitoring is done by the backup server or management tools.

Option C:Backup management (scheduling, policies) is also handled by the backup server.

Option D:Deduplication may be part of the process but is not theprimary roleof a storage node.
