A large enterprise requires centralized monitoring of multiple ECS systems along with other infrastructure. Which monitoring capability is most appropriate?

Integration with external monitoring tools via SNMP or REST API

An administrator is investigating a performance degradation on a Dell ECS cluster. The metrics show that IOPS are high, but latency is also high. The workload is a mix of reads and writes. The administrator suspects that the read cache hit ratio is low. Which additional metric would best confirm this?

Cache hit ratio per storage pool

A financial services firm uses Dell ECS for compliance archives. The compliance team requires that any attempt to write to a bucket that has reached its quota be reported within 15 minutes. Which monitoring configuration should the administrator implement?

Enable Cloud Tiering to move data to cold storage when the bucket is full.

Schedule a daily script to check bucket usage and email a report.

Use the ECS Management UI to review bucket usage weekly.

Set up an SNMP trap for bucket quota exceeded events and configure the trap receiver to page the on-call engineer.
