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?
A customer is developing a AI workflow that Ingests sensor data to FlashBlade NFS from its cloud edge collection point for furthers analysis.
The customer’s HPC cluster mounts NFS to train the data but S3 to label.
Which challenge will the architect experience with this design?
A customer has hundreds of TB of data that they need to archive for 20 years. The customer will need to completely destroy the data. They will only to access the data once or twice during the 20 years. The data is very sensitive. It would be a serious security breach if anyone accessed the data during that time. The customer is considering NAS.
Why should the architect recommend another solution?
A current FlashBlade customer has a chip design process that is not meeting their SLAs. Although the customer is using fast remove, the IOPS on their 7x17TB FlashBlade have plateaued around 700K IOPS.
What should the architect recommend adding?
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 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 is deploying FlashBlade on a ship with no immediate access to replacement part inventory. The customer needs at least 100TB of usable capacity at any time. The customer assumes worst case scenario in which FlashBlade can lose two blades between visting the next port where replacement can be shipped.
What is the recommend FlashBlade configuration?
What is the recommended number of power cables for a multi-chassis FlashBlade configuration with 4 chassis?
A customer practices agile development, and they are having performance issues with builds of the most actively developed software suite as they attempt additional concurrent builds. What is causing the issue?
A customer has an application that needs to prioritize speed for untrusted applications to put large numbers of files on an NFS export. Which NFS Export options should be used?
How many rack units (Rus) of space are required to support a multi-chassis FlashBlade with 40 blades?
A customer is architecting a new distributed application in their datacenter.
Which network device should be used for optimal network performance?
A customer need to analyze the performance data outside of Pure1 and Purity//FB.
Which two tasks should the customer perform? (Select two.)
A customer asks an architect to help troubleshoot low throughput in their high-performance compute (HPC) environment. All 70 HPC nodes have a single 10Gb connection to a 96 port 10Gb switch. The FlashBlade is connected to their dedicated HPC switch with 8x10Gb connections. The HPC application is using a single shared S3 bucket for the data being processed.
Which change is needed to increase throughput?
A customer is adding a micro-service to an existing application and needs to use the same user and S3 bucket. The current secret key is unknown.
What should the customer do to resolve this issue?
Which two Ethernet speeds do the External Fabric Modules support for data? (Select two.)
The customer reports that the end clients shown in the diagram are NOT completing jobs on time. Each client writes 300MB/s to the FlashBlade for 45 minutes every hour, and they run concurrently. What does the architect need to do?
