What are two benefits of the Hitachi Command Suite? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• Aagentless host discovery
• Bintegrated installer for core Hitachi Command Suite software
• Cone license key for all Hitachi Command Suite software products
• Dautomated microcode update management across all Hitachi storage systems

• A
  91% (40)
• C
  2% (1)
• D
  7% (3)

Explanation

Hitachi Command Suite (HCS) provides agentless host discovery (A), meaning it can automatically detect and inventory hosts without requiring software agents to be installed on each host - a significant operational advantage. It also features an integrated installer (B) that bundles the core HCS software components together, simplifying deployment and reducing the complexity of getting the suite up and running.

C is incorrect because HCS uses separate license keys per product, not a single unified key - each component (Device Manager, Tiered Storage Manager, etc.) is licensed individually. D is incorrect because HCS does not automate microcode (firmware) updates across storage systems; microcode management is handled through a separate tool, Hitachi Storage Navigator or the Hitachi Ops Center suite.

Memory tip: Think of the two correct answers as covering the before and during phases of management - B simplifies getting HCS installed, and A simplifies discovering what's in your environment once it's running. The distractors (C and D) describe features that sound convenient but belong to either licensing policies or separate tooling.
