Dell EMC Specialist – Systems Administrator, PowerEdge Server — Question 52

A PowerMax 8000 was initially ordered as a multi-engine system. How does this system differ from a PowerMax 8000 that was initially ordered as a single-engine even if it is upgraded to a multi-engine system at a later time?

Answer options

• A. Each director has the compression/deduplication module in Slot 9
• B. Each director has one more NVMe Flash module
• C. Each director has one more Universal FE slot
• D. Each director has twice the backend connectivity

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as a multi-engine PowerMax 8000 has a design that allows for an extra Universal FE slot in each director, which is not available in those that were upgraded from single-engine configurations. Options A, B, and D do not accurately reflect the architectural differences between the two configurations.
