   A PowerMax design shows a PowerSizer output that calls for 24 FC ports per director. The manufacturing bin file for the selected model lists a maximum of 16 FC ports per director. The customer's workload requires the full 24 ports to meet bandwidth. Which approach best resolves this discrepancy?

   • AKeep the current model and manually override the bin file limit in the order.
   • BUse the PowerSizer 'ignore bin file' option to generate a configuration that meets the requirement.
   • CSelect a higher-end PowerMax model whose bin file supports 24 FC ports per director, then re-run PowerSizer.
   • DReduce the number of directors and increase the port speed to compensate.
