A new PowerEdge XE node has been added to a cluster that uses Fibre Channel storage. The node has been discovered and network connectivity is confirmed. However, the node cannot see the storage LUNs. What should the administrator verify first?

Check that the Fibre Channel zoning is configured to allow the new node's WWPNs to access the storage ports.

Confirm that the node's firmware is compatible with the storage array.

Ensure that the node's network interface is configured with the correct VLAN.

Verify that the node has been assigned a storage role in the cluster.

An administrator has successfully discovered and validated a new PowerEdge XE node in the cluster management software. The node will be used to host virtual machines and provide additional compute capacity. What should the administrator do next to integrate the node into the cluster?

Run a full cluster health check to verify the node is operational.

Assign the node the compute role in the cluster.

Configure the node's storage zoning to access the shared storage.

Update the node's firmware to the latest version.

A company is adding a new PowerEdge XE node to a cluster that uses a converged network adapter (CNA) for both Ethernet and Fibre Channel traffic. The administrator has configured the CNA for Ethernet, but the Fibre Channel functionality is not working. What should the administrator check?

Ensure that the CNA's Fibre Channel ports are enabled and configured with the correct WWPNs.

Update the node's BIOS settings.

Assign the node a storage role in the cluster.

Verify that the node's network VLAN is correct.

After adding a new PowerEdge XE node to the cluster, the administrator runs a health check and notices that the node is reporting a warning about high latency on its cluster communication interface. The node is still operational. What should the administrator do?

Investigate the network path and switch configuration for the node's cluster interface.

Ignore the warning because the node is operational.

Reboot the node to clear the warning.

Remove the node from the cluster and re-add it.

Which of the following is a typical check performed to verify that a new node is fully integrated into a cluster?

Ensuring the node's fans are spinning at maximum speed

Confirming that the node appears in the cluster management interface and reports healthy status

Checking that the node's power LED is blinking

Verifying that the node has a public IP address
