NEW QUESTION # 50
Which command provides the negotiated port speed of an ethernet port?
Answer: B
Explanation:
On a Pure Storage FlashArray, Ethernet ports operate at both a physical hardware layer and a logical network configuration layer. If you need to verify the actual physical negotiated port speed of an Ethernet port (for example, verifying if a 25GbE port negotiated down to 10GbE due to switch configurations or cable limitations), you must query the hardware layer directly.
The command purehw list --all --type eth interacts directly with the physical NIC hardware components to report their true link status, health, and dynamically negotiated hardware link speed.
Here is why the other options are incorrect:
purenetwork eth list -- all (B): The purenetwork command suite is primarily focused on the logical Layer 2/Layer 3 networking stack. It is used to configure and list IP addresses, subnet masks, MTU sizes (Jumbo Frames), and routing, rather than focusing on the physical hardware negotiation details of the NIC itself.
pureport list (A): The pureport command suite is specifically used for managing and viewing storage protocol target ports. An administrator would use this to list the array's Fibre Channel WWNs or iSCSI IQNs to configure host zoning or initiator connections, not to verify Ethernet link negotiation speeds.
NEW QUESTION # 51
An administrator is setting up FA File using the FlashArray GUI. The company is an NFS only shop and needs to configure their remote user authentication.
Which of the following GUI locations should the administrator use to configure access?
Answer: A
Explanation:
For FlashArray File Services (FA File), user authentication and mapping depend on the storage protocol being used. In an NFS-only environment, remote user authentication (resolving UNIX UIDs and GIDs to actual usernames and managing access) is typically handled via LDAP or NIS.
To configure this integration in the Purity GUI, the storage administrator must navigate to Settings > Access > Directory Services. This specific section allows the FlashArray to connect to a centralized directory server (such as OpenLDAP or even Active Directory providing LDAP services) to pull the necessary UNIX user and group attributes required for NFS file permissions to function properly.
Here is why the other options are incorrect:
Settings > Access > Create Active Directory Account (A): This specific menu path is used strictly for configuring native Active Directory (AD) computer accounts and joining the domain to support the SMB (Server Message Block) protocol. Since the scenario explicitly states the company is an "NFS only shop," configuring an SMB AD account is not the correct step.
Settings > Access > File System (C): While you manage file-level exports and policies within the Purity file interface, the global configuration for remote user authentication and directory server integration lives under the dedicated Directory Services pane.
NEW QUESTION # 52
How would a FlashArray administrator view external latency for write requests for a specific volume?
Answer: A
Explanation:
In the Pure Storage FlashArray GUI, granular performance metrics (Latency, IOPS, Bandwidth) are located under the Analysis > Performance tabs. When you navigate to the Volumes sub-tab and select a specific volume, Purity displays a unified line graph tracking the performance of that volume over time.
By default, the Latency graph simultaneously plots Read, Write, and Mirrored Write (for volumes participating in an ActiveCluster or synchronous replication pod) latencies. Because these lines can overlap or compress the Y-axis (especially if one metric spikes), isolating a specific metric requires interacting with the graph's legend.
To view the exact, un-obscured latency for standard write requests to that volume, the administrator should click on "Read" and "Mirrored Write" in the chart's legend. This deselects those metrics, effectively hiding their lines from the graph and automatically rescaling the view to exclusively display the host write latency.
Here is why the other options are incorrect:
Health > Network (A): The Health tab is used to check the hardware status of the physical controller ports, including link state and errors. While you might see port-level throughput or queue depth here, it does not provide volume-specific application latency.
Storage > Volumes > Details (B): The Storage tab is primarily used for provisioning and configuration management. Clicking on a volume here will show its size, data reduction ratio, snapshot policies, and connected hosts, but it does not provide detailed interactive performance graphs.
NEW QUESTION # 53
A network admin is trying to setup Pure1 access and phone home logging on the array.
What port should the admin ensure is opened for the array?
Answer: B
Explanation:
Pure1 and Phone Home: Pure1 is a cloud-based management and monitoring platform. For the FlashArray to communicate its health data, performance metrics, and alerts to Pure Storage, it must be able to "Phone Home." The Power of HTTPS: This communication is encrypted and sent via the HTTPS protocol. Consequently, the standard port for HTTPS, TCP 443, must be opened for outbound traffic on the management network.
Firewall Configuration: The array controllers initiate an outbound connection to the Pure Storage cloud (specifically to destinations like cloud-connect.purestorage.com). Because it is an outbound-initiated connection, most stateful firewalls will allow the return traffic automatically once port 443 is permitted.
Why Option A is incorrect: Port 22 (SSH) is used for secure shell access to the array's CLI. While essential for local administration, it is not used for the automated Phone Home or Pure1 telemetry data stream.
Why Option B is incorrect: Port 8117 was historically used for the "Remote Assist" tunnel in older Purity versions. However, even for Remote Assist, modern Purity versions have transitioned to using port 443 to simplify firewall rules for customers. It is not the standard port for the general Phone Home/Pure1 logging service.
Verification: An administrator can verify connectivity by running the purearray test phonehome command in the CLI. If port 443 is blocked, the test will fail with a connection timeout.
NEW QUESTION # 54
What method is recommended for monitoring an array with 3rd party tools such as Prometheus and SolarWinds?
Answer: B
Explanation:
Modern Monitoring Standards: Pure Storage has built its management ecosystem around the REST API. While traditional methods like SNMP and Syslog are supported for basic health alerts, the REST API provides the depth of data (granularity) and the performance required for modern observability platforms like Prometheus, SolarWinds, and Grafana.
The Pure Storage Exporter: For tools like Prometheus, Pure Storage provides an official "Pure Exporter." This exporter acts as a bridge; it queries the FlashArray via the REST API to gather real-time metrics (latency, bandwidth, IOPS, capacity) and converts them into the format Prometheus understands.
SolarWinds Integration: SolarWinds utilizes the Pure Storage REST API to pull performance and health data into its storage monitoring modules. This allows for deep-dive historical analysis that exceeds the capabilities of simple SNMP traps.
Why SMI-S (Option B) is incorrect: SMI-S (Storage Management Initiative Specification) is a legacy industry standard that is largely deprecated in favor of RESTful interfaces. Pure Storage does not focus on SMI-S for modern third-party tool integration.
Why SYSLOG (Option C) is incorrect: Syslog is excellent for Event Logging (e.g., "User Logged In," "Volume Deleted"), but it is a poor choice for Performance Monitoring. You cannot effectively graph IOPS or bandwidth trends using Syslog streams alone.
