A customer is considering moving their NAS data over to Isilon systems. They want to know what limitations Isilon has regarding snapshot on the directory level.
What explanation can be provided to the customer?
You are asked to size a cluster for a file sharing environment. nfsstat indicates that 75% of the requests are namespace operations (e.g., GETADDR, SETADDR). There will be 8,000 active Linux users, connecting over NFS.
Which cluster configuration would you recommend?
What key considerations should be kept in mind when designing a 300TB solution?
At which level can retention periods be applied with Isilon SmartLock?
An Isilon customer wants to more effectively manage their storage and thereby achieve performance improvements. Which tool will help improve workflow performance on their cluster?
A customer's cluster contains three X200 (24 GB RAM, 3 TB drives) nodes, and three X400 (48 GB RAM, 1 TB drives) nodes. All nodes are configured in a single pool. All data is protected at N+2. After upgrading OneFS to 7.0, the Isilon Web interface indicates that files are not fully protected.
What should be done to correct this situation?
Which protocol is integrated with Isilon OneFS to provide on-access file functionality?
Your customer's initial use case was Home Directories. They implemented the cluster with four 1Gbps ports and LACP. They are planning to expand their cluster to support their core file services. They plan to upgrade their network infrastructure to 10 GbE to facilitate this.
What are two design impacts this change will have?
On an Isilon Gen 6 Cluster with 4 nodes and N+2d:1n protection, how much storage would a 64 KB file
consume?
Which level of control does RBAC provide for cluster administration roles?
