A Dell PowerEdge R350 server is used for a web server that experiences variable traffic. The admin wants to reduce energy consumption during low-traffic periods without sacrificing performance during peak times. The admin has enabled 'Performance Per Watt (DAPC)' profile. What is the expected behavior of this profile?

The CPU frequency is fixed at the rated speed

The CPU runs at maximum frequency at all times

The CPU frequency scales based on utilization, with power savings during idle and full performance under load

The CPU runs at minimum frequency at all times

A Dell PowerEdge R740 server has a PERC H740P controller with 6 x 1.2 TB drives. The server runs a database that requires high read performance and redundancy. The admin has created a RAID 10 virtual disk. However, the admin notices that the write performance is lower than expected. What is the most likely reason for the lower write performance?

RAID 10 uses parity calculations, which slow down writes

RAID 10 has a smaller stripe size, which reduces write performance

RAID 10 uses a write-back cache, which is disabled by default

RAID 10 requires writing to both mirrors, which doubles the write I/O

An admin has changed the processor settings in the BIOS/UEFI of a Dell PowerEdge R750 server, including disabling hyper-threading and changing the power profile. After saving and exiting, the server reboots but the OS still reports hyper-threading as enabled. What should the admin do first to verify the changes took effect?

Check the BIOS/UEFI settings to confirm the changes were saved

Reboot the server again and check the OS settings

Update the OS kernel to recognize the changes

Clear the CMOS to reset the BIOS settings

A Dell PowerEdge R650 server runs a real-time trading application that is extremely sensitive to latency spikes. The admin has configured the System Profile to 'Performance' and disabled C-states. However, the application still experiences occasional latency spikes. The admin suspects the CPU frequency is being reduced. What should the admin check or configure next?

Set 'Memory Operating Mode' to 'Mirror Mode'

Set 'Processor P-state' to 'Maximum Performance'

Set 'Processor C6 Report' to Enabled

Check if 'Intel SpeedStep' is enabled and disable it
