A virtual machine is experiencing slow performance, and you suspect the storage array is the cause. You check the VM's latency in Unisphere and see high average response times. What should you do next to confirm the issue is with the storage array and not the VM itself?

Check the VM's CPU and memory utilization in vCenter to rule out resource contention on the host.

Reboot the VM to see if performance improves.

Check the storage group's performance metrics to see if the high latency is isolated to this VM or affects all VMs in the group.

Create a new alert for high latency on the VM.

A virtual machine is experiencing high latency, but only during peak hours. The administrator wants to understand if this is due to storage array contention or a specific workload pattern. In Unisphere for PowerMax, what is the best way to analyze this?

Check the VM's current IOPS and throughput to see if it is hitting a limit.

View the VM's latency trend over the past week and correlate it with the storage group's latency trend.

Run a capacity report on the pool to see if it is near full.

Create an alert for high latency on the VM and wait for it to trigger.

When an administrator sees an alert in Unisphere for PowerMax indicating high latency for a virtual machine's storage, what is the most appropriate initial action?

Investigate the alert details and related metrics

Ignore the alert if the VM is still running

Immediately delete the virtual machine
