An organization has a vVol datastore with VMs that use the 'Gold' policy. They need to apply a more aggressive snapshot schedule to a single VM without affecting others. The 'Gold' policy is used by 20 other VMs. What is the best approach?

Apply the 'Gold' policy and then manually create snapshots for the VM.

Remove the 'Gold' policy from the VM and rely on the array's default snapshot schedule.

Create a new policy with the desired schedule and apply it to the specific VM.

Edit the 'Gold' policy to increase the snapshot frequency.

What should you check to confirm that a protection policy is actively protecting a VM on a vVol datastore?

That the VM's status shows 'Protected' in the vSphere Client

That the PowerStore Manager shows the policy as 'Active'

That the policy is listed in the VM's 'Protection' section and that snapshots are being created according to the policy's schedule

That the vVol datastore shows a 'Protected' icon

A VM on a vVol has a protection policy applied. The administrator wants to verify that snapshots are being created according to the policy's schedule. They check the VM's 'Snapshots' tab in vSphere and see no snapshots. However, PowerStore Manager shows snapshots for the vVol. What is the most likely explanation?

The policy is not applied correctly, and the snapshots in PowerStore are from a different VM.

The snapshots are temporary and have been deleted before vSphere could display them.

The snapshots are array-based and not visible in vSphere's snapshot manager.

The vSphere Client is not connected to the correct vCenter Server.

What is the primary purpose of a protection policy in Dell PowerStore?

To define a set of rules for data protection, such as snapshots and replication, that can be applied to storage resources

To set performance tiers for storage volumes

To control which users can access the PowerStore management interface

To manage the physical placement of data on different disk types

A team is deploying a new VM on a vVol datastore. They want the VM to be protected by the 'Bronze' policy from the moment it is created. What is the most efficient way to achieve this?

Create the VM, then set the 'Bronze' policy as the default on the datastore.

Create the VM, then apply the 'Bronze' policy to its vVol afterward.

Create the VM, then manually add a snapshot schedule in PowerStore Manager.

Select the 'Bronze' storage policy during the VM creation wizard.
