Designing Backup Strategies and Topologies

Question

A small service provider customer is in the process of a merger and needs to purchase additional IT infrastructure components to support the expansion of their customer base. The goal is to offer same-day repair from any hardware failures and increased high availability from the servers to the local array. The new proposal provides the following Bill of Materials (BOM):

  • HP StoreSure 2000 - 155 TB of Midline SAS SFF Drives - FC Controller

Pair

  • A pair of HP SN6000B 16Gb 48-port/48-port Active Fibre Channel

switches

  • HP P2000 Remote Snap Software
  • HP SN1000 2 Port 16 Gb HBAs
  • 24 Fibre Channel cables
  • 10 HP ProLiant DL360 Gen8s
  • vSphere Enterprise Plus and vCenter licenses from HP
  • Call-to-repair 24x7 coverage with four-hour on-site response

The customer operating budget is constrained, and the price of the BOM is too high. Which components do you propose to change to meet their budget goals without sacrificing their critical to quality goals? (Select two.)

Options

  • AModify the vSphere Enterprise Plus licenses to vSphere Enterprise.
  • BModify the HP SN6000B 48/48 switches to 48/24 switches.
  • CModify the HP SN600B 48/48 switch count to a quantity of one.
  • DModify the HBA connections by 50%.
  • EModify the Support to Next Business Day.
