   A media company is evaluating two options for a new video rendering workload: placing it on an existing All-Flash storage group or on a new hybrid storage group. The administrator has created two separate workload plans, one for each option, using the same workload parameters. What is the most efficient way to determine which option provides better response time?

   • ADelete the hybrid plan and run the simulation again with the All-Flash storage group only.
   • BUse the Compare Workload Plans feature to view the projected response time of both plans side by side.
   • CRun both simulations and manually note the response time from each results screen.
   • DSelect the plan with the lower projected front-end IOPS, assuming lower IOPS always means better response time.

   A government agency is planning to add a new document management system to an existing PowerMax array. The administrator needs to create a workload plan to model this addition. The administrator has identified the storage group that will host the new system. What is the next step in creating the workload plan?

   • ASpecify the workload parameters, such as IOPS, bandwidth, and capacity, and select the target storage group.
   • BSave the plan first, then add the workload parameters later.
   • CCompare the new system's workload with an existing plan before creating the new plan.
   • DRun the simulation immediately without specifying any parameters, as the system will auto-detect the workload.
