Free Pure Storage Certified Architect Professional – FlashBlade Exam FBAP_002 Exam Practice Test

A customer asks an architect to help troubleshoot low throughput in their high-performance compute (HPC) environment. All 70 HPC nodes have a single 10Gb connection to a 96 port 10Gb switch. The FlashBlade is connected to their dedicated HPC switch with 8x10Gb connections. The HPC application is using a single shared S3 bucket for the data being processed.Which change is needed to increase throughput?

• Add more uplinks to the HPC switch. ***
• Add more VLANS to FlashBlade.
• Add more IPs to the existing VLAN
• Add more nodes to the HPC cluster

A customer wants to use and orchestration tool to manage the FlashBlade.How should the customer create the API key?

• Go to Settings/Users
• Go to Storage/File Systems/Details
• Run 'pureadmin' from the command line ***
• Run 'pureconfig' from the command line

A customer has an application that needs to prioritize speed for untrusted applications to put large numbers of files on an NFS export. Which NFS Export options should be used?

• *(ro, async, root_squash)
• *(rw, async, root_squash)
• *(ro, sync, no_root_squash)
• *(rw, sync, root_squash) ***

A current FlashBlade customer has a chip design process that is not meeting their SLAs. Although the customer is using fast remove, the IOPS on their 7x17TB FlashBlade have plateaued around 700K IOPS.What should the architect recommend adding?

• Blades ***
• VIPs
• LAG
• Subnets

The customer has legacy production application that uses a hard-coded S3 access key with an encrypted hash for the secret key. The customer wants to enable development access to the production S3 bucket using the same S3 user account with a 60-day key rotation.What should the architect do?

• Use NFS to access data of S3 buckets.
• Create an additional S3 account and key ***
• Create an additional access key
• Create an Active Directory service account.

A customer need to analyze the performance data outside of Pure1 and Purity//FB.Which two tasks should the customer perform? (Select two.)

• Configure SNMP to send traps to destination under Messages/SNMP.
• Use REST API to pull data from Pure1
• Export csv from Pure1 ***
• Export VM Analytics to csv
• Set up scheduled job to send csv analytics to mail recipient. ***

A customer has hundreds of TB of data that they need to archive for 20 years. The customer will need to completely destroy the data. They will only to access the data once or twice during the 20 years. The data is very sensitive. It would be a serious security breach if anyone accessed the data during that time. The customer is considering NAS.Why should the architect recommend another solution?

• NAS will NOT meet the isolation and security requirements.
• NAS will be to expensive compared to other satisfactory solution.
• NAS storage mediums will degrade too much during the required 20 year of archive. ***
• NAS storage will make complete data destruction impossible.

What is the support speed of the out-of-bound management port?

• 100Mb/s
• 10Gb/s
• 1Gb/s ***
• 10Mb/s

An oil company moves geological data between their offices in Dubai and Houston for redundancy. The data is accessed via NFS mounts on a cluster of three 10GB connected Linux servers at each location.A series of cron jobs are leveraged to replicate data from data storage pool A in Dubai to data storage B in Houston and from data storage A in Houston to data storage pool B in Dubai.Data in storage pool A is read-write, updated by 50 cellular connected data collector running in the field, and deleted after 30 days.Data in the storage pool B is read-only, queried by the firm's analytics team, and copied to a cloud-based archive repository every 30 days.The total amount of data in pool A in Dubai is 1.5PBThe total amount of data in pool B in Houston is 500TBThe data is not expected to grow in the next 12 months and is compressed by the application.Which configuration should the architect present to meet this customer needs?A . A Multi-Chassis FlashBlade with 52TB blades for each site focusing on simplicity.

• A Multi-Chassis FlashBlade with 17TB blades for each site focusing on performance.
• A Multi-Chassis FlashBlade with 52TB blades for each site and third-party replication software. ***
• A Multi-Chassis FlashBlade with 17TB blades for each site and third-party replication software.

What is the speed of the connections between individual blades and the midplane?

• 1Gb/s
• 10Gb/s ***
• 40Gb/s
• 100Gb/s
