   A hospital is deploying a new Unity array for its electronic health record (EHR) system. The storage team must ensure that the most frequently accessed patient data resides on high-performance flash storage, while older records automatically move to lower-cost capacity drives. The pool must be configured to allow FAST VP to manage data placement without manual intervention. Which configuration should the storage administrator use?

   • ACreate two separate pools, one with flash drives and one with capacity drives, and manually move volumes between them each month.
   • BEnable FAST VP on a pool with only capacity drives and rely on the system's cache to accelerate all reads.
   • CCreate a single pool with only flash drives and use snapshots to archive older data to the capacity tier.
   • DCreate a single tiered pool with flash and capacity tiers, enable FAST VP, and apply a default policy that promotes hot data to the flash tier.

   A hospital runs a patient imaging system on a Unity array. The storage team has a tiered pool with FAST VP enabled. They have a policy that sets the flash tier as preferred for the imaging volume. However, they notice that the volume's data is not being promoted to flash as aggressively as expected, and some hot data remains on capacity. The team suspects that the policy is not being applied correctly. Which action should they take to verify and correct the issue?

   • ACheck the FAST VP policy assignment for the imaging volume in Unisphere and ensure the policy is correctly applied.
   • BIncrease the flash tier capacity to provide more room for promoted data.
   • CDisable and re-enable FAST VP on the pool to reset the tiering process.
   • DManually move the hot data to the flash tier using the Unity file system migration feature.
