EMC D-MSS-DS-23 Actual Questions

Dell PowerStore supports media devices that carry a FIPS Type D certification to ensure data security and compliance with Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS). The certified media devices include:

SAS SSD:Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) Solid State Drives are commonly used in enterprise storage solutions for their reliability and performance.

NVMe SSD:Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) Solid State Drives offer high-speed storage access and are optimized for performance.

NVMe SCM:NVMe Storage Class Memory provides a new tier of storage that bridges the gap between DRAM and traditional SSDs, offering both speed and persistence.

NVRAM:Non-Volatile Random Access Memory combines the speed of RAM with the persistence of flash storage, ensuring data is retained even after power loss.

These devices are FIPS Type D certified, ensuring they meet stringent security standards for data protection.

The commandsupportshowis used to gather comprehensive data from Brocade switches. This command collects extensive diagnostic information about the switch, including configuration details, hardware status, and various operational statistics. Here's a step-by-step explanation of thesupportshowcommand:

Access the Brocade Switch:Connect to the Brocade switch via SSH or through a console connection.

Enter the Command:Typesupportshowin the command line interface (CLI) and press Enter.

Data Collection:The command will begin collecting a wide array of information from the switch. This includes:

Hardware and firmware versions

Port status and configurations

Zoning information

Error logs and statistics

Environmental data (temperature, power supply status, etc.)

Output Review:The gathered data is typically extensive and can be used for troubleshooting, performance analysis, and ensuring the switch is operating correctly.

Save the Output:The output can be redirected to a file for later review or analysis by technical support teams.

The simple performance path in the Dell Unity XT sizer tool uses predefined configurations to streamline the sizing process.

This path considers various parameters to estimate the achievable IOPS rate and overall system performance.

Drive Busy Percentage:

The simple performance path assumes a maximum of 80% drive busy percentage to determine the achievable IOPS rate.

This threshold ensures that the drives are utilized efficiently without overloading, balancing performance and longevity.

Other Percentages:

Lower percentages (50%, 60%, 70%) would be too conservative and might result in under-utilization of the system’s capabilities.

Dell Unity XT documentation and sizer tool guides provide detailed information on performance metrics and assumptions used for sizing.
