A customer has the requirement to store large amounts of archive data on native tape which will be accessed rarely, as well as a smaller amount of data where fast access is important. Which IBM Enterprise Tape function provides the flexibility to meet both requirements?

A. Speed Matching

B. Capacity Scaling

C. SkipSync / Virtual Backhitch

D. Media Re-Use over multiple Generations

A customer has installed a new TS7740 with 4 TB cache, 2 performance increments and 4 backend TS1140 drives. VEHSTATS shows that the TS7740 is experiencing pre-migrate throttling during the overnight batch run. What is the correct course of action?

A. Review the effect of throttling and the PMTHLVL value with the customer

B. Advise the customer to purchase an extra 2 TS1140 drives to relieve the throttling

C. Advise the customer to purchase an extra 1 TB cache increment to relieve the throttling

D. Advise the customer to purchase an extra performance increment to relieve the throttling

After a requirements analysis including the use of the Batch Magic tool, it has been determined that a TS7740 four-way grid is the most appropriate solution, with two clusters in each of two sites. The customer wants to have four copies of the data, (one in each cluster), but also to minimize the data sent over the network between the sites. What is the best way to setup the TS7740 Virtualization Engines to achieve this?

A. Setup cluster families

B. Set up 400 MB logical volumes

C. Set up Selective Device Access Control

D. Set up two two-way grids and write two copies of the data as before

Which of the following is a point of information output from VEHSTATS?

A. The active data distribution

B. The percentage cache hit rate

C. The usage of specific stacked volume cartridge

D. The use of TS7700 resources of a batch job or subsystem
