HPE Hybrid IT Solutions — Question 8

A customer is expanding their blade based infrastructure managed by HPE OneView with an HPE Synergy platform. The customer is familiar with HPE OneView and wants to know if the same management procedures can be used to manage HPE Synergy platform.
How should you respond to this question?

Answer options

• A. HPE Synergy can be managed using the same HPE OneView instance that is used to manage HPE BladeSystem platform.
• B. HPE Synergy can be managed using HPE OneView as long as a separate, dedicated HPE OneView appliance is deployed for HPE Synergy management.
• C. HPE Synergy can be managed by HPE Composer, which is running an embedded version of the HPE OneView
• D. HPE Synergy must be managed with HPE Systems Insight Manager

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because HPE Synergy requires a dedicated HPE OneView appliance for its management, separate from the one used for the HPE BladeSystem. Option A is incorrect as it suggests using the same instance, which is not feasible. Option C is false since HPE Composer does not run an embedded version of HPE OneView for Synergy management. Option D is also wrong because HPE Systems Insight Manager is not the correct management tool for HPE Synergy.
