Question #6 (Topic: Exam A)
A financial services firm using Cohesity DataProtect 7.1.2 spends up to two days conducting DR drills manually cloning snapshots, mounting VMs in their VMware lab, and cleaning up afterward. They need a built-in, script-less orchestration engine to automate snapshot clones, mount operations, and failback steps, reducing the DR test time to hours.
Which Cohesity feature directly fulfills this requirement?
Which Cohesity feature directly fulfills this requirement?
A. Cohesity Recovery Orchestration
B. Instant Mass Restore
C. Cohesity CloudTier
D. Helios Multisite Policies
Answer: A
Question #7 (Topic: Exam A)
A customer wants to expand a four-node Cohesity cluster and configure a new fault tolerance option that can be a good compromise between space efficiency and resiliency. The customer requires: Node Failures = 2, Disk Failure = 2 and is asking for the correct number of nodes that must be added to the Cohesity Cluster.
In this scenario, what is the minimum number of nodes and the recommended number of nodes using Erasure Coding (EC) 5:2?

A. Minimum number of nodes = 6
Recommended number of nodes = 8 B. Minimum number of nodes = 7
Recommended number of nodes = 9 C. Minimum number of nodes = 5
Recommended number of nodes = 7 D. Minimum number of nodes = 10
Recommended number of nodes = 12 E. Minimum number of nodes = 8
Recommended number of nodes = 10
Recommended number of nodes = 8 B. Minimum number of nodes = 7
Recommended number of nodes = 9 C. Minimum number of nodes = 5
Recommended number of nodes = 7 D. Minimum number of nodes = 10
Recommended number of nodes = 12 E. Minimum number of nodes = 8
Recommended number of nodes = 10
Answer: B
Question #8 (Topic: Exam A)
A customer wants to have their VMware environment and Oracle databases covered with Cohesity DataProtect. However, the DBAs would prefer to use their own RMAN scripts and define their own backup schedules.
Which two solutions would you recommend in this scenario? (Choose two.)
Which two solutions would you recommend in this scenario? (Choose two.)
A. combine all the workloads onto one cluster, since Cohesity is a hyperconverged solution
B. use two separate clusters: one for VMware DataProtect and one for NFS-shares
C. let the DBAs write the RMAN-backups on the database servers and do not include it in DataProtect
D. discuss with the DBAs about the advantages of Cohesity's agent-based Oracle backup to use DataProtect for everything
Answer: AD
Question #9 (Topic: Exam A)
Review the exhibit.

You are working with a team to deploy a new on-premises Cohesity cluster. The team would like an optimal configuration for fault tolerance and load balancing of network traffic using Cisco switches. The connections are wired as shown in the exhibit.
Which three networking features should be configured to support this network topology? (Choose three.)

Which three networking features should be configured to support this network topology? (Choose three.)
A. connected network switches must support LACP
B. configure virtual port channel (VPC) on the Cisco switch
C. Cohesity nodes must be configured for Bond Mode 0 (active-passive)
D. Cohesity nodes must be configured for Bond Mode 4 (LACP)
E. configure VLAN tagging on the Cohesity cluster for load balancing across VLANs
Answer: ABD
Question #10 (Topic: Exam A)
An enterprise customer is deploying a new Cohesity DataProtect cluster across two collocated facilities with a shared Layer 2 network fabric and 10 Gbps uplinks to a network spine. Their design requirements include:
segregated traffic for management, data ingest, replication, and IPMI
out-of-band access for BMC/IPMI using a separate operations team
cluster expansion support within the same Layer 2 domain
high availability at the NIC level using LACP
You are asked to provide a network configuration that aligns with Cohesity platform requirements and avoids any stability issues across the switching fabric.
Which network configuration satisfies the customer's design requirements?
segregated traffic for management, data ingest, replication, and IPMI
out-of-band access for BMC/IPMI using a separate operations team
cluster expansion support within the same Layer 2 domain
high availability at the NIC level using LACP
You are asked to provide a network configuration that aligns with Cohesity platform requirements and avoids any stability issues across the switching fabric.
Which network configuration satisfies the customer's design requirements?
A. segment traffic, using VLANs with dedicated interfaces for each (management, data, replication), configure IPMI on the management interface, LACP in an active-passive configuration
B. configure all traffic types on bonded interfaces using LACP in active-active mode and route BMC/IPMI through a secondary VLAN on the same interface to conserve physical NICs
C. use a single interface for data and replication traffic, apply QoS to prioritize replication jobs, and deploy LACP in passive-passive mode across a trunked VLAN interface
D. use DHCP for all traffic to simplify provisioning: configure jumbo frames across all VLANs to maximize replication throughput, and use static routes for replication traffic
Answer: A
