HPE2-K45 Exam Dumps : Using HPE SimpliVity

• Register External Store …1

This option allows you to register an HPE StoreOnce Catalyst Store as an external backup target for HPE SimpliVity. This enables you to store VM backups on an HPEStoreOnce system, which is a disk-based backup solution that offers deduplication, compression, encryption, remote replication, and direct application-managed integration2.

To use this option, you need to have an HPE StoreOnce appliance connected to your HPE SimpliVity cluster, and configure a Catalyst Store on it. Then, you can select the All HPE SimpliVity Actions menu, and click Register External Store. You will be prompted to enter the following information:

• The name of the external store
• The IP address or hostname of the HPE StoreOnce appliance
• The name of the Catalyst Store
• The credentials of the Catalyst Store

After you enter the required information, click OK to register the external store1.

• HPE SimpliVity 380 Gen10 LFF H and HPE SimpliVity 380 Gen10 SFF H nodes are two types of HPE SimpliVity nodes that differ in their form factor, storage capacity, and performance. LFF stands for large form factor, which means that the node has 3.5-inch hard disk drives (HDDs) and can support up to 40 TB of raw storage capacity. SFF stands for small form factor, which means that the node has 2.5-inch solid state drives (SSDs) and can support up to 23.4 TB of raw storage capacity12.
• HPE SimpliVity nodes can be grouped into clusters, which are logical units of compute and storage resources that share the same configuration and policies. HPE SimpliVity clusters can be further grouped into federations, which are collections of clusters that span across different physical locations and provide unified management and data protection34.
• For this setup, the recommended design is to put SFF and LFF nodes in separate clusters, but within the same federation. According to the HPE SimpliVity Federation Design and Scaling Guide document, the following reasons support this recommendation:

To use this option, you need to select the backup from which you want to restore the files, then click Backup Actions > Restore Files. You will be prompted to enter the following information:

• The name of the virtual machine where you want to restore the files
• The path of the folder where you want to restore the files
• The path of the folder that you want to restore from the backup
• The credentials of the virtual machine where you want to restore the files

After you enter the required information, click OK to start the restore process3.
