What is one benefit to use SafeMode? - Answer: Allows admins to recover from ransomware attacks faster Snapshots on a single array can be offloaded into multiple public clouds simultaneosly? - Answer: False What does Snapshots Replication do to minimize how long replication takes? - Answer: Deduplicates data before transfer DR tests do not impact replication? - Answer: True ActiveCluster provides active-active synchronous replication over ethernet only? - Answer: False What function does the Cloud Mediator perform - Answer: Determines which array stays online if the replication link goes down Once both arrays in ActiveCluster replication recover after a failure and resume operation, the admin must manually restart replication? - Answer: False Which means of administrative access can be used to create a volume on FlashArray? - Answer: UI, CLI, API What is a requirement for obtain API access to the array? - Answer: An array_admin users API token In the UI Dashboard Capacity pane, what is true about the provisioned size? - Answer: It is likely to be significantly larger than the space consumed on the array What ahs the greatest impact on customer satisfaction? - Answer: Proper Sizing One good pitch focus for FlashArray is the TCO and benefits with Evergreen - Answer: True

The Right Size Guarantee can be extended by purchashing additional capacity - Answer: True
