A Dell Unity administrator is onboarding a new department. The department has three application servers that all access the same set of LUNs. Management wants a single, consistent I/O cap for the entire department to simplify billing. You need to configure this with the least administrative overhead. What should you do?

Create a host group containing the three servers and apply an IOPS limit to the group

Set a bandwidth limit on the host group instead of an IOPS limit

Apply an identical IOPS limit to each of the three servers individually

Create a new storage pool for the department and set a pool-level IOPS limit

Which benefit does setting Host I/O limits provide in a Dell Unity environment?

It prevents a single host from consuming excessive storage I/O resources

It eliminates the need for storage capacity planning

It automatically increases the number of storage processors

It guarantees that all hosts receive equal performance

Which two types of Host I/O limits can be configured on a Dell Unity system?

Cache size and CPU usage limits

Queue depth and block size limits

When would an administrator most likely configure a bandwidth limit on a Dell Unity host?

To restrict the host to a specific storage processor

To limit the number of LUNs the host can access

To control the number of I/O operations per second the host can issue

To cap the data transfer rate (MB/s) the host can achieve

A Dell Unity system has a host with a 4,000 IOPS limit. The host's application is now performing poorly, and monitoring shows it is consistently hitting the limit. The application is critical and needs more I/O. You need to increase its performance immediately. What should you do?

Modify the host's limit to 6,000 IOPS

Reboot the host to clear the limit

Add a second limit of 2,000 IOPS to the same host
