IBM PureFlex Sales Expert V1 Sample Questions:
1. A client is thinking of implementing SAP NetWeaver Landscape Virtualization Management (LVM). They have heard that IBM can integrate SAP LVM into the Flex System Manager which would save management cost for the client.
Which configuration would the sales expert recommend in this situation?
A) IBM PureFlex with x86 compute nodes running KVM and a Flex System Manager
B) IBM PureFlex with Power compute nodes and a Flex System Manager
C) IBM PureFlex with Power compute nodes managed by an HMC
D) IBM Systems solution for SAP HANA connected to a PureFlex system with a Flex System Manager
2. A prospect is considering a PureFlex solution, and they are trying to determine whether to use the Flex System V7000 Storage Node or have the Storwize V7000 attached externally.
What advantage of using the Flex System V7000 should be highlighted to the client?
A) The Flex System V7000 supports nine expansion units
B) The Flex System V7000 supports Easy Tier
C) The Flex System V7000 supports Real-time Compression
D) The FSM can be used to display and update the Flex System V7000
3. A client is concerned about application reliability in their VMware environment.
What is a unique benefit of the IBM PureFlex technology for this client as compared to a Cisco UCS?
A) By utilizing external IBM storage, virtual machines can easily share storage across multiple compute nodes and thereby reduce application downtime and increase productivity.
B) The IBM PureFlex architecture allows for a greater number of power supplies and fans, thereby providing better availability of a compute node in the event of a power supply failure.
C) The IBM PureFlex allows IP addresses and Fibre Channel ports to be virtualized. thereby eliminating the need to reconfigure new compute nodes when fail-over between compute nodes occur.
D) In the case of a compute node failure, virtual machines will be moved to a neighboring node in the same chassis faster, thereby providing a higher degree of application uptime and productivity.
4. A client has a hybrid configuration of VMware, Hyper-V and PowerVM hypervisors and is looking for a self-service portal that their development and test teams can use to request virtual machines.
In a Flex System what is the recommended product?
A) SmartCloud Entry
B) Configuration Patterns
C) VMControl
D) Rational Build Forge
5. A PureFlex System client wants to expand its current storage of the base chassis. They require low cost high density capacity that can be easily expanded in the future. The immediate need is for 100 TB of new capacity. They would also like to keep the overall storage virtualization costs to a minimum.
Which solution would provide the lower overall cost, highest density and provide for future growth to fit the customer's needs?
A) Flex System Storage Expansion Node
B) DCS3700Base
C) Storwize V7000
D) Storwize V3700
