[All D-PWF-OE-00 Questions]

Which tasks are automated when configuring snapshots in PowerFlex? (Choose two).

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, C

These tasks are handled by the Snapshot Policy feature in PowerFlex.

Scheduling snapshot creation (Option A): Administrators can define a policy (e.g., 'Gold Policy') that triggers a snapshot every 15 minutes. Once applied to a volume, the system automates this trigger.

Managing snapshot retention policies (Option C): The policy also dictates the lifecycle of the snapshot. For example, 'Keep 10 hourly snapshots and 5 daily snapshots.' As new snapshots are created, the system automatically deletes the oldest ones to free up space and maintain the defined retention count.

Incorrect Options:

Assigning to Fault Sets (B): Snapshots reside in the same Storage Pool as the source volume; they are not assigned to Fault Sets.

Automating replication (D): While replication uses snapshots, the Snapshot Policy feature itself is distinct from the Replication Consistency Group configuration.

Wait, I thought D) Automating snapshot replication was also automated?

Automating snapshot replication sounds familiar, but I can't recall if it's one of the options we discussed in class.

I feel like assigning snapshots to fault sets isn't automated, but I could be mixing it up with another topic we covered.

I remember practicing a question about managing snapshot retention policies, so that might be one of the answers too.

I think scheduling snapshot creation is definitely one of the automated tasks, but I'm not sure about the second one.

I've got this one! The automated tasks are scheduling snapshot creation and automating snapshot replication. The other options like assigning snapshots to fault sets and managing retention policies are likely manual configuration steps.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know PowerFlex has snapshot functionality, but I'm not sure which specific tasks are automated. I'll need to double-check the PowerFlex documentation to refresh my memory on the snapshot configuration process.

Okay, let me think this through. I believe the automated tasks are scheduling snapshot creation and automating snapshot replication. The other options like assigning snapshots to fault sets and managing retention policies seem like manual configuration tasks.

Hmm, I'm not too sure about this one. I know PowerFlex has some snapshot capabilities, but I'm not familiar with the specific automation features. I'll need to review my notes on PowerFlex snapshot management.
