1. A potential customer requires 800 TB of usable capacity to store medical images for their network of health clinics. The IT department has limited staff and currently manages four storage arrays from other vendors. During a meeting with the Director of IT you learn that the company is considering a solution from a competitor of EMC using two of the existing arrays and two new arrays.Which Isilon capabilities would show a better ROI for the customer?
A) Isilon has 15%-20% less overhead than traditional clustered filesystems.
According to an IDC study, Isilon utilization is nearly 50% higher than traditional competitors.
Isilon QOS headroom and multiple node pools ensures consistent performance up to 80%
utilization.
B) With a single filesystem and virtual capacity for drive and node failures, Isilon utilization is typically
80% or higher.
OneFS compression results in higher effective capacity within the cluster.
Traditional clustered filesystems require 4%-10% internal overhead compared to Isilon virtual
capacity.
C) Isilon has 6%-12% less filesystem overhead than traditional clustered filesystem solutions.
With a single filesystem and virtual capacity for drive and node failures, Isilon utilization is typically
80% or higher.
Isilon utilization is typically 80% or higher due to use of a single filesystem and virtual capacity for
drive and node failures.
D) Forward Error Correction overhead is 7% lower than traditional RAID.
Isilon has 6%-12% less filesystem overhead than traditional clustered filesystem solutions.
According to an IDC study, Isilon improves IT productivity by nearly 50% compared to traditional competitors.
2. -- Exhibit -
A large manufacturing company is an existing Isilon customer with a cluster consisting of four NL400 nodes with 4TB drives. The cluster is using N+2:1 protection level and the file system shows that it is 60% utilized. Home directories and file shares comprise 75% of the existing content and the remainder is inactive deep archive. The company has 1,000 employees using Windows and Mac clients participating in a single Active Directory (AD) forest.
During a meeting with the CIO and Director of IT you discuss the company's recent acquisition - an engineering firm that specializes in Computer Aided Design (CAD). The engineering firm has 400 UNIX workstations that produce technical drawings which are currently stored on another vendor's SAN solution. The all UNIX environment uses NIS for authentication and name resolution. They do not currently use DNS or LDAP. The engineering company has an old storage system that has been experiencing problems and the CIO would like you to migrate the data onto the Isilon cluster. The CIO would like to eliminate all tape and recover the data onto disk.
The CIO is concerned about security of the company's intellectual property, especially with the rapid adoption of mobile devices and external cloud content sharing services such as DropBox, Egnyte, and SugarSync. They would like to implement an alternative that provides external file sharing and mobile device synchronization while maintaining security control over the company's data.
The Director of IT reports that users are storing non-work related content on the Isilon cluster. They would like to limit the amount of capacity that each user can consume in their home directory and want to ensure you provide the capability to easily visualize which users are over their allotment. The company's Windows users currently leverage Windows Shadow Copy to recover files that have been accidentally deleted. The IT department wants to ensure that Mac and incoming UNIX clients have the same functionality.
The Director of IT also mentions that users are reporting slow response times when browsing their home directories and shared folders. They are concerned that Isilon cannot scale to support their combined requirements.
The customer provides the following environment summary from the engineering firm's recently departed IT staff:
20 TB of Home Directory data
100 TB of active CAD projects 400 TB of archived data stored on tape at an offsite warehouse
-- Exhibit -
The CIO approaches you with a new requirement. They would like to reuse the tape library that was previously used for archiving to now be used to back up some of their data.
What do you recommend to the Director of IT as the best architecture to achieve this goal?
A) Use a third party backup software and have the Isilon cluster convert the data to LTFS so it can be stored to the tape library.
B) Connect the Tape Library via Fibre Channel to the Isilon cluster and use a third party backup software to initiate an NDMP backup to an accelerator.
C) Use a Backup Accelerator with SyncIQ to push the data to the tape library via the Fibre Channel ports on the accelerator.
D) Implement a Backup Accelerator and use the internal backup software within the Isilon cluster to move data to the tape library.
3. -- Exhibit -
We have been engaged by a research hospital to help upgrade their Isilon installation. They currently have 12 previous generation Isilon nodes with 200TB of capacity and run on a 1Gbps network. They currently have 6 Illumina Hi-Seq Sequencers and an HPC cluster to process data. They would like to expand Isilon to 2PB of active data and 1PB of archive data. They use a third party data and metadata management service (IRODs) to stage data for analysis. The Isilon cluster is mainly used for analysis work with the HPC cluster.
-- Exhibit -
The customer will add two more Illumina Hi-Seq Sequencers in the next 6 months.
Once these are added, what is the total amount of data from all the sequencers they can expect to add per month?
A) 9.6 TB
B) 1.2 TB
C) 4.8 TB
D) 14.4 TB
4. Refer to the exhibit.
A large hospital chain has approached you to redesign their storage infrastructure. The head of IT believes their requirement is for 60 TB of RAW capacity. The following are the notes from meetings with the department heads.
Which is the minimum cluster configuration that meets the customer's requirements?
A) 3 NL-Series nodes using SynqIQ to 3 NL-Series nodes
B) 5 S-Series nodes
C) 4 X-Series nodes using SynqIQ to 4 NL-Series nodes
D) 3 S-Series nodes using SmartPools and 3 NL-Series nodes for Archive
5. A potential customer has about 540TB of NetApp running in ONTAP 7-Mode. They are willing to let you gather some workload data. 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?
A) Isilon Insight IQ, OnCommand Insight, and nfsstat
B) Wireshark, isi statistics, and iostat
C) MiTrendWPA ,Autosupport, and PerfCollect
D) isi status, isi_netlogger, and PerfMon
