HPE FlexNetwork Core Technologies — Question 18

Your customer needs a compute solution. Their aging data center can only supply 5kW per rack, which is below the 15kW required for your planned solution.
Which change could you recommend to satisfy the requirement while maintaining the planned solution’s level of performance? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Design the solution with non-redundant power supplies.
• B. Use BMC tools to cap the power consumption of each server at 33%.
• C. Spread the infrastructure across additional racks.
• D. Host the compute solution with a colocation provider.
• E. Convert the solution to HPE GreenLake pay-per-use.

Correct answer: C, D

Explanation

Options C and D are correct because spreading the infrastructure across additional racks (C) allows for more total power availability, and hosting with a colocation provider (D) can provide higher power capacity than the current data center. Options A and B do not address the need for additional power, while option E does not resolve the immediate power limitation issue.
