When do you need to check the BIOS configuration on an HCP G10 node?

When replacing an entire HCP G10 node, it is necessary to check the BIOS configuration. This ensures that the new hardware is correctly configured according to the required specifications for the HCP system. The BIOS settings need to be consistent with the rest of the cluster nodes to ensure proper functionality, performance optimization, and hardware compatibility. This check might include verifying boot order, enabling virtualization, setting appropriate hardware clock configurations, and other critical settings outlined in the "Hitachi Vantara HCP G10 Installation and Configuration Guide."QUESTION NO: 4

You are installing a HCP G10 with attached storage. The system will be networked using four 10 GbE SFP+ interfaces.

How many PCIe cards are installed in each HCP G10 node?

A. 1

B. 2

C. 3

D. 4

Answer:B

Each HCP G10 node with attached storage and networked using four 10 GbE SFP+ interfaces requires two PCIe cards. Typically, one PCIe card is allocated for network connectivity, while the other is used for storage connectivity. The cards need to support the necessary number of network interfaces and any additional connections required for attached storage. The specific configuration depends on the HCP model, but generally, two PCIe cards are sufficient to handle both networking and storage interfaces as described in the "HCP G10 Hardware Installation Guide."
