Q1

A platform engineer is troubleshooting a PowerStore 5000T appliance where node B is in service mode. The engineer observes a recurring alert: `(0x7770101) Node B has rebooted unexpectedly`. PowerStore Manager shows node A is healthy and serving all I/O. Analysis of the support bundle indicates a potential memory DIMM issue on node B. What is the most appropriate next step to resolve this issue while minimizing disruption?

Q2Multiple answers

During a pre-upgrade health check for a PowerStoreOS update, the system reports a failure with the message: `Network latency between nodes exceeds the recommended threshold`. All other checks pass. The cluster is operating without any client-facing performance issues. Which TWO actions should the engineer take to diagnose the root cause of this specific warning? (Select TWO)

Q3

A financial services company is deploying a new PowerStore 9200T cluster for a mission-critical database application. The network security team requires that all management traffic, storage traffic (iSCSI), and replication traffic be on separate, non-routable VLANs. The provided top-of-rack switches are configured with the required VLANs, and LACP is mandated for all connections. How should the platform engineer configure the PowerStore networks to meet these requirements?

Q4

A platform engineer has successfully replaced a faulty power supply unit (PSU) in a PowerStore 1200T base enclosure. The PSU was a hot-swappable CRU. After inserting the new PSU and connecting the power cable, the engineer observes its status LED is solid green. What is the final verification step that must be performed in PowerStore Manager?

Q5

True or False: On a PowerStore X model appliance, the vMotion network must be configured on a separate subnet and VLAN from the storage network to ensure proper functionality and prevent network contention.

Q6

A consultant is planning the installation of a 4-appliance PowerStore 3200T cluster with two 25-drive expansion enclosures per appliance. What is the total rack space (in rack units, U) required for this hardware configuration?

Q7

When cabling a PowerStore T base enclosure to its first expansion enclosure using the back-end SAS ports, what is the correct cabling scheme to ensure high availability and proper connectivity?

Q8

An administrator is performing a Non-Disruptive Upgrade (NDU) on a two-appliance PowerStore T cluster. The process begins, and the upgrade is applied to the first node of the first appliance. What is the state of I/O processing on the peer node of that appliance during this specific phase of the upgrade?

Q9

A technician is on-site to troubleshoot a PowerStore 500T that is inaccessible over the management network. The technician cannot ping the cluster management IP address. Direct connection to the node service ports is required. What is the default IP address of the service port on a PowerStore node?

Q10

A healthcare organization is selecting a PowerStore model for a new VDI environment. Key requirements are high performance for boot storms, simplicity of management within their existing vSphere environment, and the ability to run a small administrative virtual machine directly on the storage appliance. Which PowerStore model family best fits these requirements?
