Answer: D

Explanation:

What does a TRC definition include?

• Definition of server model and local components (CPU, RAM, adapters, local storage) at the orderable part number level.

• Required RAID configuration (e.g. RAID5, RAID10, etc.) – including battery backup cache or SuperCap – when the TRC uses DAS storage

• Guidance on hardware installation and basic setup (e.g. click here ).

– Click here for deta iled Cisco UCS server documentation regarding hardware configuration procedures.

– Configuration of Virtual-to-physical network interface mapping is design-dependent and not included in TRC definition.

– Configuration of adapters (such as Cisco VIC, 3rd-party CNA / NIC / HBA) is design-dependent and not included in TRC definition.

– Configuration settings or step by step procedures for hardware BIOS, firmware, drivers, RAID setup are not included. Click here for detailed Cisco UCS server documentation .

• Design, installation and configuration of external hardware is not included in TRC definition, such as:

– Network routing and switching (e.g. routers, gateways, MCUs, ethernet/FC/FCoE switches, Cisco Catalyst/Nexus/MDS, etc.)

– QoS configuration of route/switch network devices

– Cisco UCS B-Series chassis and switching components (e.g. Cisco UCS 6100/6200, Cisco UCS 2100/2200, Cisco UCS 5100)

– Storage arrays (such as those from EMC, NetApp or other vendors)

• Configuration settings, patch recommendations or step by step procedures for VMware software are not included in TRC definition.

• Infrastructure solutions such as Vblock from Virtual Computing Environment may also be leveraged for configuration details not included in the TRC definition.
