An Isilon customer created a SyncIQ policy to replicate data from a primary cluster to an offsite secondary cluster. The primary cluster becomes unavailable, and the customer has completed a failover onto the secondary cluster. The primary cluster becomes available again, so the customer would like to fail back data to the primary cluster. The failback process does not replicate data. What is the most likely reason the failback policy does not replicate data to the primary cluster?


A) Clusters are not sharing an Infiniband switch
B) Secondary cluster has modified files on it
C) Original policy was for synchronization
D) Policy contains a SmartLock directory

E) None of the above
F) A) and D)

An Isilon has two ports configured per node. Each port is on a different VLAN. Although incoming traffic is evenly distributed, transmitted data from the Isilon uses one port more than the other port. What could be the cause of this imbalance?


A) Static routes are configured on the less-used port
B) A default gateway was not configured on both ports
C) Source Based Routing is not enabled on the cluster
D) Priority of the gateway in the less-used port set too low

E) None of the above

An Isilon customer created a scheduled SyncIQ policy to replicate data from an Enterprise-mode SmartLock directory. The source cluster is now unusable and the target cluster does not automatically allow writes to the data in the replicated SmartLock directory. What is the reason why the target cluster did not automatically allow writes of the data?


A) SyncIQ Automated failover is not supported for SmartLock directories; however, manual failover is allowed.
B) Automated failover and manual failover are not allowed on SmartLock directories on the target cluster.
C) A SyncIQ job was running while the source cluster became unusable, thereby removing all data on the target directory.
D) SnapshotIQ was not licensed on the target cluster; the snapshot of the directory is not available for use by SyncIQ.

A customer has an Isilon cluster that they want to simplify a Hadoop workflow. The workflow analyzes large amounts of log data written to storage using FTP and results are viewed by Microsoft Windows clients? How can this be achieved?


A) FTP, SMB, and HDFS NameNode and DataNode protocol support on the same file system to enable each workflow step to access data from the same location avoiding data migration.
B) SyncIQ to migrate the log data between an Isilon cluster and another Hadoop cluster, to retrieve results from the Hadoop cluster, and to store them in an SMB share.
C) SmartConnect to direct clients to an external Hadoop NameNode and to SMB shares so data ingest, analytics, and results phases are transparently directed.
D) FTP and SMB protocol support to provide log ingest and Windows clients; SmartPools will stub to HDFS helping to reduce the frequency of external data migration.
