We have been engaged by a research hospital to help upgrade their Isilon installation. They currently have 12 previous generation Isilon nodes with 200TB of capacity and run on a 1Gbps network. They currently have 6 Illumina Hi-Seq Sequencers and an HPC cluster to process data. They would like to expand Isilon to 2PB of active data and 1PB of archive data. They use a third party data and metadata management service (IRODs) to stage data for analysis. The Isilon cluster is mainly used for analysis work with the HPC cluster.

A customer has a 7-node Isilon cluster configured with N+2:1 protection. How many nodes can be offline with the data accessible and fully writeable?
You have had several discussions with your customer in the processor design industry. They have stated that they want a Scale-Out NAS platform for their design environment. Their most significant responses were "We have 125 design engineers accessing large diagrams and we need high throughput to support them. Can we also get the highest performance available? We need to stay ahead of our competitors." Other areas you discussed were their data retention policies and workflow after the chip design is completed. They plan to archive the design files but the files must stay on line.
What is your initial node recommendation?

A customer is inquiring about expanding their primary cluster consisting of six S-Series nodes in order to improve performance. They have a second cluster with 11 X-Series nodes. Both clusters leverage 1GbE, but the customer recently installed a 10GbE network that can be utilized. They also have multiple Fibre Channel SAN arrays in their environment.
They have a variety of workloads on each cluster and are in the process of determining which workloads belong on which cluster. They have discovered that one of the workloads- a SQL database that resides on the X-Series node cluster - is experiencing timeouts due to latency. The database vendor has suggested limiting latency to 5ms or less to eliminate these timeouts.
How do you advise the customer?

What is the recommended namespace path for the access zone on a new Isilon cluster with SyncIQ license?
A hospital is considering using Isilon to store their archived medical images and Genomic Sequencing data. They currently have 56 TB of PACS images and 24 TB of genomic data, and expect to double their capacity requirements this year. They will replicate to a DR cluster, and plan to use N+2 protection. The production workload needs to be run at either site.
Which minimum cluster configuration, at each site, including software, would meet this customer's environment?
In your second meeting with the customer you ask the following questions about their current unified SAN and NAS platform.
"Are you using an application to map users from NFS Exports to SMB shares? Is each site a separate LDAP or AD Domain?"

Your customer manages a print media environment, consisting of three Isilon clusters, which are out of support. The customer would like to have access to new software releases and feature sets. You have been asked to perform a full discovery of the customer’s environment.
The customer's current Isilon clusters are as follows:
“Cust” (12 x 12000X) serves as upload media storage for different tenants.
“Working” (8 x 12000X + 6 x X200) serves as a working zone for extraction to RAW and printing media from it.
“Archive” (16 x 72NL + Accelerator nodes) is used to store printed content for six months.
The customer operates in a Windows environment using SMB 2.0, two DNS servers per AD forest, three forest domains which are servicing three different environments. All servers are operating on a 1Gb network, three VLANs segregating the DEV/QA/PROD environments. Currently, there is no monitoring in place for performance measurement or optimization.
The requirements for this solution include:
What would you recommend be done to consolidate the three clusters into one?

How can the snapshots be removed while avoiding the overhead caused by this process?
Which provider supports authentication and lookup facilities for local users and groups that have been defined and are maintained on the cluster?
Your customer is looking for a storage solution that will be able to store seven million 3 MB files which are written and seldom accessed. Read and write operations are both completed by a web-based application, which requires 1.3 Gbps throughput. The customer's network has not been upgraded in many years, so the network interfaces are 1 Gbps.
What would be the best solution for this network configuration?
Your customer purchased an Isilon cluster with eight X400 nodes for Home Directories. Your follow-up discussions have uncovered an opportunity to expand the cluster to support the Legal Department. As you prepare to complete the Workflow Profile Document, you meet with the customer to discuss data protection.
Which key areas should you address?
A telecommunications company has a substantial amount of data. This data is being created by network elements within their environment.
The company wants to change the way the network elements Call Detail Records (CDR) are stored and analyzed. The existing infrastructure consolidates all of the CDRs into a table structure, and then ingests them into a large database. Once ingested, a query engine accesses the database and performs analysis on these files. The system is functional; however, since the amount of CDRs generated will increase exponentially over the next year, the company is open to alternatives for storing and analyzing these records.
In evaluating alternatives, the key requirements are to reduce cost, the amount of storage, and the amount of time to analyze the data. The customer would like to use Hadoop to analyze the CDRs.
After you have conducted an assessment of the workflow, you have recommended an Isilon Cluster to work within the Hadoop environment.
Considering the customer's requirements, which is the best node type for the Isilon cluster?
