HPE0-V13 Designing HPE Software-Defined Infrastructure Solutions Questions and Answers

You are planning a Red Hat Open Container Platform (OCP) deployment on HPE Synergy, following the HPE RA.

Is this a license that you should attach to a worker node?

a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server license based on the number of processors on the node

A customer has an HPE FlexFabric data center network, which was working correctly. Then the customer added VMware NSX, and now VM-to-VM traffic in logical networks is not being forwarded by the network infrastructure.

Could this be the issue?

The FlexFabric switches are not configured with an expanded VLAN set to match the VNIs in logical switches.

Is this a reason that a virtualization farm benefits from deployment on software-defined infrastructure (SDI)?

SDI helps customers scale out virtualization farms more quickly.

A customer is implementing a Container as a Service (CaaS) solution, and you are helping to provide the infrastructure, including the persistent storage solution.

Does this HPE 3PAR characteristic provide a benefit for the customer’s solution? QoS support

A customer has an HPE SimpliVity Federation based on VMware. The customer wants to add self-service catalogs that users can use to establish services built on the SimpliVity cluster. Provisioning services will require workflows that include tasks, including cloning VMs and creating datastores.

Is this a way to achieve this goal?

Deploy HPE Composable Fabric for SimpliVity.

Is this how the Composable Fabric handles traffic at Layer 2?

If the traffic does not match an affinity, forward the traffic on a path calculated for such traffic.

Is this a guideline for deploying HPE SimpliVity networks?

The Storage network should have jumbo frames enabled (MTU of 9000).

Is this a reason to use VVols on an HPE storage array to support a VMware vSphere environment?

because VVol acts as plug-ins, integrating array monitoring and management on vCenter

You are deploying HPE FlexFabric switches in a data center in which a customer uses VMware NSX.

Is this something that you should check on the FlexFabric switches?

ToR switch ports that connect to ESXi hosts permit the ID associated with every VXLAN in NSX.

Is this a use case for deploying Microsoft Storage Spaces Direct on HPE infrastructure?

creating a link between a Microsoft Hyper-V environment and Nimble virtual volumes

When a Docker container is run from an image on a Docker host, is this how the container is deployed?

If the image is not stored locally on the host, the image is pulled from Docker Hub or the registry indicated in the run command.

A customer has a Microsoft Hyper-V environment and wants to be able to deploy an OS on bare metal HPE ProLiant servers with Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM).

Is this part of the process for enabling this feature?

Use extracted drivers to create an HPE ProLiant Updates Catalog (PUC).

Is this a benefit of using the HPE OneView RESTful API to monitor and manage HPE infrastructure?

customers can issue API calls using their choice of programming languages

A customer has an HPE SimpliVity Federation based on VMware. The customer wants to add self-service catalogs that users can use to establish services built on the SimpliVity cluster. Provisioning services will require workflows that include tasks, including cloning VMs and creating datastores.

Is this a way to achieve this goal?

Deploy HPE Composable Fabric Manager with the VMware and SimpliVity integrations.

Is this a characteristic that a platform should provide to help it support and scale up database that supports both OLTP and OLAP workloads?

storage capacity optimized over storage performance

Is this a benefit of the HPE Nimble plug-in for vCenter?

storage management actions integrated into vCenter workflows

You are proposing HPE Synergy to support a VMware vSphere environment, in which clusters of ESXi hosts provide high availability for workloads such as a web farm, an inventory server, and a database.

Is this a recommended design principle for this use case? Deploy no more than three nodes per cluster.

Is this a benefit of the HPE Nimble plug-in for vCenter?

simplified management for restoring VM clones from vCenter

Is this a use case for a cluster of HPE SimpliVity 380H models?

providing GPU acceleration for VDI workloads

A customer wants to start using containers. They have decided on Docker containers and Kubernetes for managing the containers, but their IT department not have a great deal of expertise in Kubernetes.

The customer requires a packaged solution that supports a private registry and role-based access control. It should also be able to integrate with middleware tools for messaging and CI/CD pipeline management.

The customer needs help sorting through orchestration platform options. Is this correct advice that you can provide?

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) and Docker Enterprise Engine (EE) both meet the customer’s security needs.

A customer has a Microsoft Hyper-V virtualized environment. You are helping a customer replace some of the hosts with an HPE SimpliVity cluster.

Is this a correct guideline for adding and managing the new cluster?

Use the HPE SimpliVity Image Streamer to deploy the Hyper-V hypervisor to the nodes automatically.

A customer has a virtualized data center that uses VMware. The virtualized workloads include latency- sensitive databases. You are considering proposing that the customer move the workloads to HPE SimpliVity.

Does this correctly describe how well HPE SimpliVity can handle the latency-sensitive workloads?

HPE SimpliVity helps to support low latency by localizing a VM’s data on both the node that runs the VM and a backup node that runs the VM if the first node fails.

Is this a use case for HPE InfoSight Analytics?
