A PowerSizer output for a PowerMax model shows a configuration with 16 engines and 128 FC ports. The manufacturing bin file for that model lists a maximum of 16 engines and 64 FC ports. What should the architect do?

Reduce the number of FC ports to 64 and re-run PowerSizer.

Ignore the FC port limit because it is not a critical component.

Select a different model without re-running PowerSizer.

Proceed with the design because the engine count is within the limit.

After running PowerSizer for a PowerMax deployment, the output summary shows a configuration with 8 engines and 1,024 GB of total DRAM. The manufacturing bin file for the selected model indicates a maximum of 8 engines and 512 GB of DRAM per engine. What should the architect verify next?

That the total DRAM does not exceed the bin file limit for the model.

That the number of engines is even.

That the PowerSizer output includes a performance estimate.

That the DRAM per engine is within the bin file limit.

A PowerSizer output for a PowerMax 8500 shows a configuration with 32 engines and 64 FC ports per director. The manufacturing bin file for the 8500 lists a maximum of 32 engines and 48 FC ports per director. The customer requires 64 FC ports per director for their SAN design. What is the best course of action?

Use a different port type, such as iSCSI, to meet the requirement.

Accept the PowerSizer output because it is the recommended configuration.

Reduce the number of directors to increase the port count per director.

Select a different PowerMax model whose bin file supports 64 FC ports per director, then re-run PowerSizer.
