HPE Edge-to-Cloud Solutions — Question 60

A customer contacts you for assistance with an expansion of their current HPE Synergy environment.
The existing environment contains:
✑ one Synergy 12000 frame
✑ two Composers
✑ eight SY480 Compute Modules - 1 CPU - 384GB RAM - 3820C 10/20GbE CNA
✑ one D3940 Storage Module
The new requirement is 16Gb FC connectivity to a newly-deployed 3PAR storage array.
Which components should you include? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Synergy 3830C Host Bus Adapter
• B. two QSFP+ AOC/DAC cables for ICM clustering
• C. a second CPU per Compute Module
• D. HPE Synergy FC License Upgrade per Composer pair
• E. an additional Virtual Connect SE 40Gb F8

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

The Synergy 3830C Host Bus Adapter (A) is essential for achieving the required 16Gb FC connectivity to the 3PAR storage array. Adding a second CPU per Compute Module (C) enhances performance, which could be part of the expansion needs. The other options do not directly address the connectivity requirement or are not necessary for the expansion as described.
