EMC Isilon Design Specialist Exam for Technology Architects Sample Questions:

1. Your customer has an Isilon cluster with five X400 nodes and four 72NL nodes. A SmartPools policy moves data to the NL nodes after 60 days of inactivity. The customer wants to expand the archive tier by at least 150 TB and would like to manage a single archive pool.
Which nodes should be added to the cluster?

A) Three X400 nodes with 1TB drives
B) Two NL400 nodes with 4TB drives
C) Three NL400 nodes with 2TB drives
D) Two X400 nodes with 3TB drives


2. -- Exhibit -
A large manufacturing company is an existing Isilon customer with a cluster consisting of four NL400 nodes with 4TB drives. The cluster is using N+2:1 protection level and the file system shows that it is 60% utilized. Home directories and file shares comprise 75% of the existing content and the remainder is inactive deep archive. The company has 1,000 employees using Windows and Mac clients participating in a single Active Directory (AD) forest.
During a meeting with the CIO and Director of IT you discuss the company's recent acquisition - an engineering firm that specializes in Computer Aided Design (CAD). The engineering firm has 400 UNIX workstations that produce technical drawings which are currently stored on another vendor's SAN solution. The all UNIX environment uses NIS for authentication and name resolution. They do not currently use DNS or LDAP. The engineering company has an old storage system that has been experiencing problems and the CIO would like you to migrate the data onto the Isilon cluster. The CIO would like to eliminate all tape and recover the data onto disk.
The CIO is concerned about security of the company's intellectual property, especially with the rapid adoption of mobile devices and external cloud content sharing services such as DropBox, Egnyte, and SugarSync. They would like to implement an alternative that provides external file sharing and mobile device synchronization while maintaining security control over the company's data.
The Director of IT reports that users are storing non-work related content on the Isilon cluster. They would like to limit the amount of capacity that each user can consume in their home directory and want to ensure you provide the capability to easily visualize which users are over their allotment. The company's Windows users currently leverage Windows Shadow Copy to recover files that have been accidentally deleted. The IT department wants to ensure that Mac and incoming UNIX clients have the same functionality.
The Director of IT also mentions that users are reporting slow response times when browsing their home directories and shared folders. They are concerned that Isilon cannot scale to support their combined requirements.
The customer provides the following environment summary from the engineering firm's recently departed IT staff:
20 TB of Home Directory data
100 TB of active CAD projects
400 TB of archived data stored on tape at an offsite warehouse
-- Exhibit -
Which configuration changes would you recommend for the Engineering users?

A) Create an FQDN for the Isilon cluster in the LMHOSTS file for each engineering system.
B) Direct all clients to use the Manufacturing DNS server and connect NFS mounts to the FQDN of the Isilon cluster.
C) Utilize SMB2.1 protocol and mount to the Isilon cluster using the Name Server (NS) record IP.
D) Mount an NFS share to a node on the Isilon cluster, being careful to equally distribute the load across nodes.


3. A customer is inquiring about expanding their primary cluster consisting of six S-Series nodes in order to improve performance. They have a second cluster with 11 X-Series nodes. Both clusters leverage 1GbE, but the customer recently installed a 10GbE network that can be utilized. They also have multiple Fibre Channel SAN arrays in their environment.
They have a variety of workloads on each cluster and are in the process of determining which workloads belong on which cluster. They have discovered that one of the workloads- a SQL database that resides on the X-Series node cluster - is experiencing timeouts due to latency. The database vendor has suggested limiting latency to 5ms or less to eliminate these timeouts.
How do you advise the customer?

A) Merge the S-Series nodes and X-Series nodes into one cluster, upgrade the 1GbE to 10GbE, and leverage SmartPools to allow for the cluster to determine where data should reside.
B) Recommend they increase the amount of DRAM in the cluster or consider an Accelerator node in order to increase the amount of cache in their cluster.
C) Suggest the customer consider leveraging SSDs in the new nodes they purchase and GNA to boost the performance of each cluster.
D) Consider migrating data from Isilon to one of their SAN platforms or proposing a new solution to handle the performance requirements of SQL.


4. A customer has grown 2 PB in the last year. The cluster performs well most times of the day, but occasionally during the day, the customer notices a decrease in performance. You have been told that 'tree-deletes' are taking too long and can only be run on weekends.
What would you recommend to speed up the 'tree-deletes'?

A) Add 20% more nodes to the cluster to help with degraded performance.
B) Use an A100 node for added CPU performance to help with 'tree-deletes.'
C) Add an SSD node tier for metadata to account for at least 2% of RAW capacity
D) Add an SSD tier for metadata, ensuring all nodes have SSDs.


5. Which Isilon feature provides the ability to build a cluster using different node types and tiers to meet a customer's business objectives?

A) SnapshotIQ
B) SmartConnect
C) SmartPools
D) SmartQuota
