When should the architect select a FlexibleLOM adapter that supports Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)?

An architect has selected the FlexibleLOM option fur HPE XL230a compute trays, which will host an HPC application.

When should the architect select a FlexibleLOM adapter that supports Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)?
A . when the application uses parallel computing and relies on Fibre Channel to reduce latency for communications between compute nodes
B . when the application requires high throughput between processors and disk drives local to the same compute tray
C . when the application uses a Fibre Channel storage area network (SAN) for its shared storage solution
D . when the application requires additional bandwidth and needs a solution for load sharing traffic over multiple links

Answer: A

What is one reason for choosing the XL250a tray?

A customer is planning a multi-threaded HPC solution that would benefit from threads running in parallel.

The architect selects the HPE Apollo 6000 and needs to choose between the HPE XL230a and the XL250a compute tray.

What is one reason for choosing the XL250a tray?
A . The HPE XL250a server supports DDR4 HPE Smart Memory.
B . The HPE XL250a server supports dual accelerators.
C . The HPE XL250a server provides full length PCIe expansion slots.
D . The HPE XL250a server delivers dual processor performance.

Answer: B

Explanation:The HPE ProLiant XL250a Gen9 Server delivers 2P performance for your budget with dual accelerator support, while leveraging the HPE Apollo 6000 System and its modular flexibility and rack-scale efficiency. This server features the Intel® Xeon® E5-2600 v3/v4 series processors and 16 DIMM slots are ready with DDR4 2133 (1024 GB maximum)/2400 (2048 GB maximum) MHz memory and HPE Smart Memory.

Which solution should the architect recommend?

A customer needs a live transcoding solution that meets the following requirements:

Which solution should the architect recommend?
A . Several HPE Apollo 6000 Systems with HPE ProLiant XL220a server nodes
B . Several HPE Moonshot Systemswith m700 cartridges
C . Several HPE Moonshot Systems with m710p cartridges
D . Several HPE Apollo 6000 Systems with HPE ProLiant XL230a server nodes

Answer: C

Which solution should the architect recommend to help solve these issues?

A customer is deploying HPE Apollo Systems, which the customer hopes will help the organization achieve its goals for efficient energy operations. In assessing the customer maturity, the architect finds that IT staff has limited insight into how efficiently servers are operating and limited ability to enforce energy efficiency policies.

Which solution should the architect recommend to help solve these issues?
A . HPE Advanced Power Manager
B . HPE OneView 2.x
C . HPE Power Advisor
D . HPE Insight Remote Support

Answer: A

What is a basic assumption for an architect using the HPE Servers TCO calculator to justify a customer’s migration away from a fully depreciated set of hardware?

What is a basic assumption for an architect using the HPE Servers TCO calculator to justify a customer’s migration away from a fully depreciated set of hardware?
A . By analyzing the project’s internal rate of return (IRR), it is possible to determine if the lower IRR will make it more desirable to undertake the project.
B . When the customer’s older systems are under a support contract, a new system can sometimes pay for itself simply by not renewing the older support contracts.
C . The Net Present Value (NPV) is the difference between the value of the older systems and the cost of the new systems.
D . The opportunity costs of not migrating from a legacy environment to an HPE Converged Infrastructure Solution, in terms of IT Efficiency and User Productivity, will always justify the purchase.

Answer: C

What is a valid reason to select 10GbE?

An architect is choosing between 1GbE and 10GbE connectivity for an object storage solution.

What is a valid reason to select 10GbE?
A . The customer’s network infrastructure is based on QoS service.
B . The customer needs the system to recover quickly from a failure.
C . The customer needs the object storage servers to be able to locate random data on a disk more quickly.
D . The customer plans to increase the memory in the nodes in the future.

Answer: C

What can the architect demonstrate to the customer to help solve the problem while preserving the validity of the original design solution?

A customer recently purchased an HPE Moonshot chassis to host its internal website. Subsequently, the customer reports difficulties deploying new cartridges in an efficient manner. The customer suggests exchanging the solution for a more traditional server platform.

What can the architect demonstrate to the customer to help solve the problem while preserving the validity of the original design solution?
A . how to use SCCM to provide a graphical installation method for new nodes
B . how to use VSP to provide a graphical installation method for new nodes
C . how to add an mRCA module to provide a graphical installation method for new nodes
D . how to use iLO remote console to provide a graphical installation method for new nodes

Answer: C

Explanation:In order to interface with the specific server cartridge node, the mRCA must be installed in a specific slot within the chassis, relative to the linking server cartridge.

Which modification can the architect recommend to improve network performance?

View the Exhibit.

Refer to the exhibit. A customer has an HPE c7000 enclosure managed by HPE OneView with HP BL460c Gen9 servers in a vSphere cluster. The customer has multiple vLANs trunked from the top of rack (TOR) switches to the Virtual Connect modules in the enclosure. Due to network Access Control List (ACL) requirement and guidelines from the networking department, all network traffic should be forced to an upstream switch using the Virtual Connect “Private Network” feature.

The customer reports slow network response.

Which modification can the architect recommend to improve network performance?
A . Change the FlexFabric 20/40 adapter modules with Flex 10/100 modules.
B . Change the FlexFabric adapter modules with Flex-10 adapter modules.
C . Remove the Management network from the uplinks.
D . Put the vMotion network in a separate uplink set and disable “Private Network”.

Answer: A

Which solution meets the customer’s needs?

A customer has a Hadoop big data and analytics solution.
