Dell EMC Specialist – Implementation Engineer, PowerEdge Server — Question 23

A PowerMax parent Storage Group (SG) contains two child SGs: SG1 and SG2. What is a valid Host I/O limit setting for this configuration?

Answer options

• A. Parent SG: 400,000 - SG1: 800,000 - SG2: 300,000
• B. Parent SG: 500,000 - SG1: 400,000 - SG2: NOLIMIT
• C. Parent SG: 500,000 - SG1: NOLIMIT - SG2: 1,000,000
• D. Parent SG: 400,000 - SG1: 500,000 - SG2: NOLIMIT

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Option A is correct because the total limit for the parent SG (400,000) is not exceeded by the sum of the child SG limits (800,000 + 300,000 = 1,100,000, which is acceptable). The other options either exceed the parent's limit or set one of the child SGs to NOLIMIT, which can lead to violations of the parent's I/O constraint.
