HPE Server Solutions — Question 1

An architect is planning an HPE Integrity Superdome X solution with the following nPartitions: nPar 1= Slots 1, 3, and 5 nPar 2 = Slots 2, 4, and 6
The Superdome X solution must connect to a Fibre Channel SAN solution, which provides boot disks for the Superdome X solution.
The architect has selected a FlexibleLOM adapter for each blade.
What is a valid plan for additional adapters?

Answer options

• A. one 2-port FC HBA for slot 1
• B. one 2-port FC HBA each for slot 1, slot 3, and slot 5
• C. one 2-port FC HBA each for slot 1 and slot 2
• D. one 2-port FC HBA each for slot 2, slot 4, and slot 6

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because each of the slots in nPar 2 (slots 2, 4, and 6) needs a 2-port FC HBA to ensure connectivity to the Fibre Channel SAN for the respective partition. The other options do not provide sufficient coverage for the required nPartitions or do not match the specified slot requirements.
