Curious about Actual Dell EMC RecoverPoint Deploy (D-RP-DY-A-24) Exam Questions?

Correct : B

Select the Correct Installer: In the RecoverPoint Deployment Manager wizard, select the ''RecoverPoint with VNX Installer'' option. This installer is specifically designed for environments using VNX storage systems.

Cluster Configuration: Configure the clusters at both the production and disaster recovery sites to be managed as a single RecoverPoint system.

Complete the Installation: Follow the remaining steps in the Deployment Manager wizard to complete the installation and ensure that all four VNXs are integrated into the RecoverPoint system.

For detailed installation instructions and to ensure that the clusters are managed as one system, refer to the Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines Installation and Deployment Guide1. This document provides comprehensive guidance on installing and configuring a Dell RecoverPoint system, including scenarios with multiple clusters and VNX arrays.

Correct : C

To calculate the minimum required size for the Journal volume, we can use the provided formula and input the given parameters:

Average Write Traffic: 5 Mb/s

Required Rollback Time: 24 hours (which is 24 * 60 * 60 = 86,400 seconds)

Default Parameters: Assuming the image access log percentage is 20% (which is a common default), and the reserved for marking is negligible.

Using the formula:

\text{Journal size} = 1.05 \times (\text{write traffic}) \times (\text{rollback time in seconds}) / (1 - \text{image access log percentage})Journalsize=1.05(writetraffic)(rollbacktimeinseconds)/(1imageaccesslogpercentage)

We plug in the values:

\text{Journal size} = 1.05 \times (5 \text{ Mb/s}) \times (86,400 \text{ seconds}) / (1 - 0.2)Journalsize=1.05(5Mb/s)(86,400seconds)/(10.2)

Converting Mb to GB (1 Mb = 1/8,000 GB):

\text{Journal size} = 1.05 \times (5/8,000 \text{ GB/s}) \times 86,400 / 0.8Journalsize=1.05(5/8,000GB/s)86,400/0.8

\text{Journal size} = 1.05 \times 0.000625 \text{ GB/s} \times 86,400 / 0.8Journalsize=1.050.000625GB/s86,400/0.8

\text{Journal size} = 1.05 \times 54 \text{ GB} / 0.8Journalsize=1.0554GB/0.8

\text{Journal size} = 70.875 \text{ GB}Journalsize=70.875GB

Since we need to round up to ensure we have enough space, the minimum required size for the Journal volume is approximately 72.4 GB.

This calculation ensures that the Journal volume is adequately sized to handle the write traffic and maintain the required rollback time, providing a buffer for the image access log1.

Correct : B

Physical Connection: The RPAs should be physically connected to each other using their iSCSI ports. This is because the host systems are configured with iSCSI HBAs, which indicates that the storage network is based on iSCSI protocol1.

Configuration in RecoverPoint: In the RecoverPoint Deployment Manager, ensure that the iSCSI ports of the RPAs are correctly configured to communicate with the VNX array.

Verification: After the physical connections and configurations are made, verify that the RPAs can communicate with the VNX array and that the iSCSI connections are stable and operational.

It is important to note that while the RPAs are connected through their iSCSI ports, they should not be connected to any MirrorView ports on the VNX array. Additionally, ensure that the RPAs are connected directly to the FC ports on the Storage Processors (SPs) and not to an expansion SFP on the file side1.

Correct : C

Access the CLI: Log into the RecoverPoint Command Line Interface (CLI) using appropriate credentials.

Run the Command: Execute the export_statistics command to gather performance data.

Save the Data: The command will output the performance data, which can then be saved to a spreadsheet.

Review and Graph: Use the spreadsheet to review the performance data and create graphs to visualize system performance over the specified time period.

The export_statistics command is used to export performance data from RecoverPoint, which can then be analyzed and graphed for a better understanding of system performance and to identify any potential issues1.

Correct : C

Access the Symmetrix CLI: Log into the Symmetrix Command Line Interface (CLI) on the system where the VMAX LUNs are provisioned.

Run the Command: Execute the symdev -sid list -rp_tag command to list all devices with the RecoverPoint tag.

Verify Tagging: Review the output to confirm that the VMAX LUNs intended for use with RecoverPoint are correctly tagged.

This command is part of the EMC Symmetrix CLI and is specifically used to verify the tagging of LUNs for RecoverPoint, ensuring that they are recognized by the RecoverPoint system for replication purposes1.
