Dell EMC Exam D-XTR-DY-A-24 Topic 5 Question 10 Discussion

Actual exam question for Dell EMC's D-XTR-DY-A-24 exam

Question #: 10
Topic #: 5

In a fully-populated Data Protection Group (DPG) with sufficient capacity, how many disk drives need to fail sequentially to stop the XtremIO X2 data services?

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

When configuring Linux hosts to support XtremIO storage, it is recommended to set the LUN queue depth to 64. This setting helps to optimize the performance of the host when communicating with the XtremIO storage system.

Access Host Configuration: Log into the Linux host that will be connected to the XtremIO storage.

Modify HBA Parameters: Locate the HBA (Host Bus Adapter) parameters within the host's configuration files.

Set Queue Depth: Adjust the queue depth parameter for the HBA to 64. This can typically be done by editing the options.conf file or similar, depending on the HBA driver in use.

Apply Changes: Save the changes and reload the HBA driver or reboot the host to apply the new configuration.

Verify Configuration: Confirm that the new queue depth setting is active and functioning as expected.

I hope the exam doesn't ask me to count the failed drives myself. That would be a real nightmare!

I bet the answer is D) 7. The XtremIO X2 must have some impressive data redundancy.

I'm sticking with D) 7. The XtremIO X2 must have some serious data protection capabilities.

9 disk drives? That seems like a lot. I'll have to review the DPG specifications again.

I disagree, I believe the answer is B) 6 because it would take 6 disk drives failing sequentially to stop the data services.
