Question 5

You are looking at a Fibre Channel trace log and you notice that the class 2 communication session between one initiator and target continually stops and then restarts. You suspect that there is a flow control problem between this pair of devices. Which login communication session would you analyze in the trace log for the number of flow control credits that have been allocated?

A. fabric login

B. port login

C. process login

D. loop login

Correct Answer: B

Question 6

Last month, you successfully merged two (2) local SAN islands into a single core/edge fabric topology and connected storage devices to the core switches. Performance benchmarks were met or exceeded.

What is the most likely explanation?

A. over utilization of one or more ISLs

B. multiple process login failures

C. conflicts between SAN routing protocols

D. storage port buffer credit limits have restricted I/O capabilities

Correct Answer: A

Question 7

B. allows SCSI I/O throughput to equal rates of fibre channel

C. determines the most efficient way to order & process commands

D. determines queue depth position

E. allows I/O requests to be queued to the device

Correct Answer: C,E
