QuestionQ17

Identify customer opportunities

A customer has an HPE Alletra 5030 storage array supporting various workloads, but is experiencing throughput and latency problems.

An HPE partner has determined that the customer can upgrade the current solution to a 5050, resolving the performance problems while providing room for growth.

What is a best practice before performing the upgrade?

Explanation

HPE Alletra Storage 5000 guidance recommends that, when different drive capacities are necessary, the highest-capacity drives be placed in the head shelf, followed by expansion shelves in descending capacity according to their proximity to the head shelf. Matching shelf capacities is preferred where feasible.
