- Question 1Select 2
A systems integrator is positioning HPE GreenLake for File Storage for a university's high-performance computing (HPC) and AI analytics workload. Which TWO features represent key capabilities inherent to this specific solution? (Select TWO)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answers: A, C
HPE GreenLake for File Storage is built on HPE Alletra Storage MP hardware combined with VAST Data software, providing massive scale-out performance for AI and HPC workloads. It also supports true native cross-protocol access (NFS, SMB, S3) to the same data without separate pools. It does not use proprietary ASICs for deduplication (it uses software similarity reduction) and does not natively attach to mainframes.

- Question 2
A financial institution requires a data protection solution capable of continuous data protection (CDP) to achieve Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs) measured in seconds for their mission-critical virtual machines. Which HPE solution in the portfolio provides this specific capability?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Zerto (an HPE company) provides hypervisor-based Continuous Data Protection (CDP) that delivers RPOs in seconds and RTOs in minutes. HPE StoreOnce is a purpose-built backup appliance typically used for daily/hourly backups, not sub-minute CDP. Alletra and Nimble provide snapshots, but Zerto is the specific CDP solution for VM-level granular journaling.
- Question 3
An enterprise currently operates an HPE Nimble Storage Gen5 array. They want to modernize their infrastructure to HPE Alletra 6000 but require the transition to occur with absolutely zero downtime, no host reconfiguration, and no external migration appliances. Which specific capability facilitates this requirement?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
HPE supports a non-disruptive, data-in-place controller upgrade from Nimble Gen5 to HPE Alletra 6000. This process involves swapping the controllers one at a time while the data remains on the existing drives, requiring no host changes, no data migration, and resulting in zero downtime. Peer Copy and vMotion require data movement.
- Question 4
MedHealth Systems operates a legacy data center with separate storage silos: a high-performance block array for their Electronic Medical Records (EMR) database, and an aging scale-out NAS for their PACS medical imaging archive.
They require a consolidation strategy onto a modern HPE portfolio. The block storage must provide a 100% data availability guarantee due to life-safety requirements. The file storage must scale linearly to multiple petabytes without performance degradation, utilizing similarity-based data reduction. Both must be managed via a cloud-based control plane.
Which combination of HPE solutions should the integrator propose to meet these specific requirements?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
HPE Alletra 9000 uniquely provides a 100% data availability guarantee for mission-critical block workloads like EMR. HPE GreenLake for File Storage (powered by VAST) provides linear petabyte-scale file performance with similarity-based data reduction. Both are managed via the HPE GreenLake cloud portal (Data Services Cloud Console).
- Question 5
Review the data protection lifecycle below:
sequenceDiagram participant Host participant Primary as HPE Alletra participant Target as Backup Appliance Host->>Primary: Write Production Data Primary->>Target: Catalyst Copy (Deduplicated) Target-->>Target: Apply Immutability Policy
Which HPE solution in the portfolio is specifically designed to act as the 'Backup Appliance' in this diagram, natively supporting HPE Catalyst and data immutability?Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
HPE StoreOnce is the purpose-built backup appliance in the HPE portfolio that natively supports the HPE StoreOnce Catalyst protocol, deduplication, and features like Virtual Lock for data immutability against ransomware.
- Question 6
A proposed HPE Alletra 9000 solution includes 4-way active-active controllers. The customer's strict SLA requires that the storage array must sustain 150,000 IOPS at sub-millisecond latency even during a single controller failure. How should the storage architect evaluate the sizing of this proposed solution?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
In a 4-node (4-way) active-active system, if one controller node fails, the remaining 3 nodes must handle 100% of the workload. Therefore, to ensure performance SLAs are met during a failure, normal operations should not exceed 75% of the system's total capacity (since 3/4 = 75%). If normal load is higher, a single node failure will cause the remaining nodes to exceed 100% utilization, violating latency SLAs.
