HPE Storage Solutions HPE7-J02 HP Study Notes

Detailed Explanation:

Rationale for Correct Answer:

HPE SimpliVity RapidDR simplifies and automates DR failover processes, but execution requires an authorized operator to trigger a pre-configured recovery plan. This balances automation with compliance and security requirements (important for healthcare). It does not guarantee zero RTO, but it does minimize RTO through automation.

Distractors:

A: RTO of 0 is not possible; RapidDR reduces but does not eliminate recovery time.

B: Domain admin credentials for re-IP are not required; automation handles reconfiguration.

C: Auto-commit/rollback require administrator validation; no “silent” automation is allowed for compliance.

Key Concept: RapidDR = automation of failover/failback but requires authorized trigger.

Detailed Explanation:

Rationale for Correct Answer:

From the exhibit, the system shows maximum estimated IOPS performance (over 250K IOPS read, 115K IOPS mixed, 62K write). These values align with HPE’s published performance specifications for this model with full cores enabled. The network interface count and disk count are balanced relative to controller capability. Therefore, no further upgrades are required to achieve maximum performance.

Distractors:

A: Adding NICs/HBAs may improve throughput but will not exceed controller-bound IOPS.

B: Adding disks increases capacity, not peak IOPS, as performance is primarily controller-driven.

D: The system already matches controller capability; upgrading cores is not an option in Alletra MP B10000 mid-range systems.

Key Concept: Understanding performance sizing based on controller and architecture limits, not just capacity or NICs.
