Dell EMC Expert – Cloud Architect — Question 2

A company is planning to replicate a dataset to a newly implemented Dell EMC Isilon cluster. SyncIQ will be used from the source cluster to the target cluster. The company’s systems administrator wants to know how long the initial synchronization will take without seeding. The administrator provides the following information:
Link speed between clusters is 1 Gb/s
Link speed efficiency is 85%

SyncIQ domain size is 125TB -
If no SyncIQ performance rules are set, what is the estimated number of days?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is 10 days, as it reflects the estimated duration based on the provided link speed and efficiency calculations. The other options (12, 14, and 16 days) exceed the expected time based on the 1 Gb/s link speed and 85% efficiency for transferring 125TB of data.
