Which of the following is a configuration requirement for Fibre Channel host connections to E-Series systems?

Configuring zoning on the Fibre Channel switch

Assigning an IP address to the host

Enabling DHCP on the storage controller

What is a required component for InfiniBand host connections to E-Series systems?

InfiniBand HCA (Host Channel Adapter)

A company is deploying an E-Series system with Fibre Channel connectivity. They have two FC switches and four hosts, each with two HBAs. The administrator wants to ensure that a single switch failure does not cause any host to lose access to the storage. What is the best practice?

Connect each HBA to a different switch and configure multipathing.

Connect both HBAs from each host to the same switch.

Use a single HBA per host and connect it to one switch.

Connect all HBAs to a single switch and rely on the storage controller.

What is a primary use case for InfiniBand host connections to E-Series systems?

Low-cost, long-distance connections

High-performance computing (HPC) environments
