A company is planning to connect an ESXi host to PowerStore using Fibre Channel. The host has a dual-port HBA. What is required on the ESXi host to ensure it can access the PowerStore FC targets?

Install the PowerStore FC driver and reboot the host.

Create a VMkernel adapter on the FC network and enable the FC software adapter.

Enable the software FCoE adapter and configure the FC HBA.

Configure the FC HBA with the correct WWPNs and ensure the host is zoned to the PowerStore FC ports.

A PowerStore administrator has created a volume and wants to present it to a specific ESXi host. The host has been added to PowerStore as a host object. What must be done to ensure the host can access the volume and create a datastore?

Map the volume to the host object in PowerStore, then rescan the host's storage adapters.

Create a volume group and add the volume to it, then map the group to the host.

Enable CHAP on the volume and configure the host with the same credentials.

Add the volume to the host's datastore list in vCenter, then refresh the storage.

What is the purpose of configuring a dynamic discovery address on an ESXi iSCSI adapter?

To enable CHAP authentication for the iSCSI session

To assign a static IP address to the ESXi host's iSCSI adapter

To set the maximum transmission unit (MTU) for the iSCSI network

To specify the IP address of the PowerStore storage system for target discovery

An administrator has created a VMFS datastore on a PowerStore volume. The datastore is visible on the host, but the administrator wants to ensure that the datastore is automatically mounted on all hosts in the cluster. What should be done?

Manually mount the datastore on each host in the cluster.

Map the volume to all hosts in the cluster and rescan each host.

Use vCenter to add the datastore to the cluster's storage.

Enable Storage DRS on the cluster to automatically mount datastores.

An administrator has configured the iSCSI software adapter on an ESXi host and added the PowerStore storage IPs to the dynamic discovery list. However, the host cannot see any PowerStore targets. The storage network is correctly configured, and the host has a VMkernel adapter on the storage VLAN. What is the most likely cause of the discovery failure?

The iSCSI software adapter is not enabled or the initiator IQN is not set.

The VMkernel adapter is on the wrong VLAN, preventing iSCSI traffic.

The PowerStore storage IPs are not in the same subnet as the VMkernel adapter.

The PowerStore volume is not mapped to the host, so the target is not visible.
