A company has a Dell Unity system with two storage processors (SPs). An ESXi host is connected via four Fibre Channel paths (two per SP). The administrator notices that all I/O is going through only one path, and the other three paths are idle. The host is using the default NMP settings. What is the most likely cause of this behavior?

The Unity storage group is configured to only present one path to the host.

The Fibre Channel switch has a faulty port that is not passing traffic.

The ESXi host is using the Fixed path selection policy, which selects only one path.

The storage system is configured for Active/Passive mode, and only one path is active.

An ESXi host cannot see a Dell Unity LUN that was just mapped. Which common issue should be checked first?

The Unity system's management IP is unreachable

The LUN is not zoned correctly in the Fibre Channel switch

The ESXi host's time is out of sync

The ESXi host's DNS settings are incorrect

A company is using NFS datastores on a Dell Unity system for a VMware cluster. The administrator wants to ensure that the NFS traffic is isolated from other network traffic. What is the recommended approach?

Create a dedicated VMkernel port for NFS on a separate VLAN.

Configure the Unity file interface on the same subnet as the management network.

Enable Jumbo Frames on the management network to improve NFS performance.

Use the same VMkernel port for NFS and vMotion.

To create an NFS datastore on a Dell Unity system for VMware ESXi, what must be configured on the Unity side?

A file system and an NFS export
