A.consolidation of snapshots is still manual but not necessary

B.automatically deduplicating data of snapshots through StorFS

C.impact on the VM performance after a lot of writes, requiring future administration

D.on datastore level, snapshots work the same as vSphere snapshots

E.automatic update to the golden image when a configuration change is made

F.limitations in age and number of snapshots. See user manual for limitations

A.24 GB

B.48 GB

D.12 GB

A.HyperFlex enables stretched RAID arrays spanning multiple geographic sites.

B.Hardware replacement initiates self-healing with minimal impact

C.Limiting the number of drives locally, which are not a part of the shared datastore.

D.Distributing data locally, not just across the hosts in HyperFlex cluster

E.Eliminating the need for additional hardware cards, while maintaining high performance.

A.UCS Manager

B.Storage CLI

C.Data Center Network Manager

D.Cisco IMC 13

E.REST API

F.HyperFlex Connect

A.Virtualizing object storage environments by pushing meta data directly to the management server

B.The virtual interfaces created by a VIC do not accommodate hypervisor communication like VMkernel interfaces on vSphere.

C.Management through Cisco IMC or UCS Manager with dynamic configuration of virtual interface cards based on the server profile (MAC/WWN).

D.Traffic processing for internal and external communication supporting simultaneous HBA and NIC operation on the same physical hardware.

E.Multiple-interface-card virtualization without any additional driver requirements with integration of the virtualized cards into the Fabric Interconnect infrastructure.

F.A virtual environment, such as VMware vSphere, provides VM connectivity via a virtual switch to individual virtual machines bypassing local hardware requests.
