What is the maximum volume or aggregate size that can be created with an Isilon Scale-Out NAS system?
Correct Answer:
D
-- Exhibit -
A European Sports TV network is considering Isilon for their Media Edit Storage for their editing workloads. They are also considering Isilon for near-line media archiving.
The network receives XDCAM HD footage which is loaded onto their existing Transcoding Storage platform. New footage that needs to be edited will be transferred from their Transcoding Storage platform to the proposed Media Edit Storage platform at the rate of ten simultaneous XDCAM HD files via FTP. Edited files will be transferred back to the Transcoding Storage platform at the rate of ten simultaneous XDCAM HD files via FTP.
The network currently has 15 Final Cut Pro edit stations, 15 Avid edit stations. Proxy software will be used to allow Isilon to act as the storage for the Final Cut Pro and Avid media. Three of those edit stations will be performing content compositing as needed.
The network expects 70 hours of new content per week, and 50 hours of edited content per week. They intend to keep the new and edited content on the proposed Media Edit Storage as a performance tier for 30 days. They would like to retain all new and edited footage proposed Media Edit Storage as a near-line tier for two years.
In addition to the current workloads, the network expects to implement a new Media Asset Management (MAM) solution and has requested the Isilon cluster be capable of supporting 120 MBps read and 120 MBps write to support the MAM requirements.

Based on the described use of the cluster, which node combination is the appropriate choice for the customer’s requirements?
Correct Answer:
A
Which tool is used to perform a cluster-wide kernel configuration change on an Isilon Gen 6 cluster?
Correct Answer:
A
Refer to the exhibit.
Your customer has three different clusters. File systems on two of the clusters are at 90% full, and the largest cluster is 10% full. Active data resides on the largest cluster. The customer has five different node types totaling 2PB and 54 nodes. Nodes from left to right are as shown:
(1). X200
(2). 12000X
(3). 36000X
(4). NL108
(5). 108NL
They have a Smartpool license and believe that tiering data would help free up needed space.
After talking with the customer and explaining the use of SmartPools, how would you recommend optimizing utilization across all of the nodes that the customer owns?
Correct Answer:
A
A customer is looking for a NAS solution to support their read-intensive application. This solution must meet the following requirements:
1000 users Aggregate bandwidth of 5 GB/s 500 TB of user data Typical latency of 5 ms.
The files are distributed evenly across 10 directories.
Which cluster configuration would best meet these requirements?
Correct Answer:
B
