Question Image

A company intends to implement high availability between the iSCSI host and the Fibre Channel target. Which solution must it implement to recover from the failure of a host NIC, an MDS IP storage port, or a Fibre Channel target port?

  • A Configure FCoE between the host NICs and MDS ports.
  • B Set up IP storage ports to export the two Fibre Channel target ports.
  • C Implement HSRP on the MDS IP storage ports.
  • D Map the Fibre Channel target ports to one IP storage port.
Explanation

Each MDS IP storage port must export both Fibre Channel target ports. This creates multiple iSCSI sessions across independent host, IP-storage-port, and FC-target-port paths; host multipathing can continue I/O over the surviving sessions when any one NIC, IP storage port, or target port fails.
