   An administrator is configuring an ESXi host to access PowerStore storage. The host will use NVMe over FC. What must be in place for the host to discover the PowerStore NVMe subsystem?

   • AThe host must be zoned to the PowerStore FC ports using a zone that includes the host's WWPNs.
   • BThe host must have a software iSCSI adapter enabled and the PowerStore iSCSI target IP added.
   • CThe host's FC adapter must be in NVMe mode, and the PowerStore FC ports must be configured for NVMe over FC.
   • DThe PowerStore system must have the VASA provider installed on the host.

   An ESXi host has been configured to access a PowerStore volume over iSCSI. The host sees the LUN, but the path status shows 'dead' for all paths. What is the most likely cause?

   • AThe volume is mapped to the host with a LUN ID that conflicts with another volume.
   • BThe PowerStore system is overloaded and cannot handle I/O requests.
   • CThe host's initiator IQN is incorrect in the PowerStore host definition.
   • DThe iSCSI target IP is not reachable from the host's iSCSI adapter.

   A company is deploying a new ESXi cluster to connect to PowerStore. The cluster will use both FC and iSCSI for redundancy. The administrator has configured the FC zoning and iSCSI network. However, the hosts can only see the FC LUNs, not the iSCSI LUNs. What should the administrator check?

   • AConfirm that the host's iSCSI initiator IQN is the same as the FC WWPN.
   • BCheck that the FC zoning includes the iSCSI target ports.
   • CEnsure that the PowerStore iSCSI target portal is on the same subnet as the host's management network.
   • DVerify that the software iSCSI adapter is enabled on each host and that the iSCSI target IP is added to the adapter.
