QuestionQ15

PowerMax Upgrades and Migrations

Because of data-center space restrictions for the PowerMax 8500 system, the existing six node pairs with four DMEs are limited to expansion within the current rack.

What is a valid upgrade option in this scenario?

  • A One more DME (total five) can be installed in the existing rack.
  • B Two more DME (total six) can be installed in the existing rack.
  • C No additional node pairs or DME can be added to this configuration.
  • D Two more node pairs (eight node pairs) can be installed in the existing rack.
Explanation

A dense PowerMax 8500 System Bay 1 has a maximum of six node pairs and four DMEs. Additional DMEs must be installed in System Bay 2, and node pairs seven and eight also require System Bay 2; therefore, an existing single rack with six node pairs and four DMEs cannot accept additional node pairs or DMEs.
