A customer has a FlashBlade and wants to use it to store data for an application that runs on Linux. The FlashBlade has four Data VIPs and is connected with four 40Gbe links connected to the Top-of-Rack switch in a virtual port-channel with trunking enabled. The Linux host has a single 40Gbe NIC and is configured with a single mount point located at /mnt/appdata. nconnect is not enabled.

What is the maximum throughput the customer should expect when reading data from the mount point?

The customer wants to build a software QA infrastructure using modern big data tools like Spark and Kafka. The goal is to process 50 billion events per day and provide feedback in real-time in less than 5 seconds.

The architect needs to create a FlashBlade configuration to meet the capacity and performance requirements using the following assumptions:

4 RSyslog servers accessing FlashBlade via NFS

6 servers accessing FlashBlade via S3

Capacity: 6TB + 18TB + 18TB

Each protocol will create a concurrent write and / or read throughput of 6GB/s

Which configuration should the architect use to meet these requirements?

A company has a datacenter with a lot of electromagnetic interference. Their switches are 9m away from the FlashBlade and do NOT support speed faster than 10Gb/s.

Which cable should the architect use?

A customer is standing up a new 30x17TB FlashBlade system.

The customer’s environment is as follows:

1.The upstream switches are located 50 feet away

2.The upstream switches have the required number of 100Gb/s interfaces.

3.The customer is conscious about data availability.

4.The customer requires the use of 4 LAGs

What is the minimum number of cables required?

What happens when a blade is added to an existing 7x17TB FlashBlade system?

The customer provides the network diagram shown. The customer wants to use RBAC and SMB on the FlashBlade. The customer does NOT use encryption for identity-related traffic.

Which ports must be opened for this to work?

How many rack units does a FlashBlade system with 39 blades consume?

A customer has two workflows. One workflow can use either SMB 3.0 or ISCSI. The other only leverage NFS.

What should the architect recommend as a strategy?

Which of the following benefits does FlashBlade SafeMode offer?

A customer is architecting a new distributed application in their datacenter.

Which network device should be used for optimal network performance?
