You are a cloud engineer working for a cloud service provider that is responsible for an
IaaS offering.
Your customer, who creates VMs and manages virtual storage, has noticed I/O bandwidth issues and low IOPS (under 9000).
Your manager wants you to verify the proper storage configuration as dictated by your service level agreement (SLA).
The SLA specifies:
. Each SFP on the hypervisor host must be set to the maximum link speed
allowed by the SAN array. . All SAN array disk groups must be configured in a RAID 5.
. The SAN array must be fully configured for redundant fabric paths. . IOPS should not fall below 14000
INSTRUCTIONS
Click on each service processor to review the displayed information. Then click on the drop-down menus to change the settings of each device as necessary to conform to the SLA requirements.
Based on the SLA requirements and the information provided in the diagram:
For the Hypervisor:
Slot A fiber channel card:
Port 1 link speed should be set to 16 Gbps since it's connected to Fabric switch A which supports 16 Gbps.
Port 2 link speed should be set to 8 Gbps because it's connected to Fabric switch B which supports up to 8 Gbps.
Slot B fiber channel card:
Port 1 link speed should be set to 16 Gbps since it's connected to Fabric switch A which supports 16 Gbps.
Port 2 link speed should be set to 8 Gbps because it's connected to Fabric switch B which supports up to 8 Gbps.
