An Isilon customer would like to have different snapshot policies and schedules on the same directory. Why isthis possible on an Isilon cluster?
A customer is looking for a NAS solution to support their read-intensive application. This solution must meetthe following requirements: * 1000 users * Aggregate bandwidth of 5 GB/s * 500 TB of user data * Typical latency of 5 ms.
The files are distributed evenly across 10 directories. Which cluster configuration would best meet theserequirements?
At a minimum, how many connected and available nodes are required to maintain quorum in a 25- nodecluster?
Which Isilon OneFS protection level allows you to withstand two drive failures but no more than one completenode failure?
A telecommunications company has a substantial amount of data. This data is being created by networkelements within their environment.
The company wants to change the way the network element's Call Detail Records (CDR) are stored andanalyzed. The existing infrastructure consolidates all of the CDRs into a table structure, and then ingests theminto a large database. Once ingested, a query engine accesses the database and performs analysis on thesefiles. The system is functional; however, since the amount of CDRs generated will increase exponentially overthe next year, the company is open to alternatives for storing and analyzing these records.
In evaluating alternatives, the key requirements are to reduce cost, the amount of storage, and the amount oftime to analyze the data. The customer would like to use Hadoop to analyze the CDRs.
After you have conducted an assessment of the workflow, you have recommended an Isilon Cluster to workwithin the Hadoop environment. Which protocols would be the best fit when using Isilon for this customer'sHadoop workflow?
On an Isilon node, where are file system operations initiated?
An existing customer has two NAS systems providing NFS storage in their main data center - one is an Isiloncluster and the second is an array from another vendor. Both systems are four years old, and the customerwould like to consolidate the storage into a single solution.
According to the customer, both systems supportidentical workloads with similar performance and utilization, and they want the new solution to support 50%performance growth. Which method can model the workload requirements, and what multiplier will capture therequirements for the new solution?
In a supported cluster with the maximum protection level, how many simultaneous node component failurescan Isilon OneFS sustain while still allowing full access to the entire file system and dataset?
What is the maximum volume or aggregate size that can be created with an Isilon Scale-Out NAS system?
