Topic #: 5
An administrator is tasked with adding two nodes to a PowerFlex cluster. What steps must they take to ensure proper integration? (Select two).
Suggested Answer: A,B Vote an answer
To ensure the "proper integration" (meaning the add process succeeds without breaking the cluster):
Verify hardware compatibility (Option A): You must ensure the new nodes have the same CPU/RAM profile and, crucially, the same Drive Type/Capacity as existing nodes. Adding a hybrid node to an All- Flash cluster, or a node with incompatible firmware, can cause performance degradation or instability.
Validate network connectivity (Option B): Before the PowerFlex software can even be installed or added to the cluster, the nodes must have valid IP addresses and be able to communicate with the MDM over the management and data networks (checking MTU, VLANs, and routing).
